      Welcome to CW-- good to have another photo collector!

      The information on the back indicates that this photograph was copied and enlarged-- typical for the late 19th century.

      If you have an interest in antique photos, be sure to take a look at my postings-- I have hundreds of unusual 19th century images posted.

      Thank you, Scott, glad to be here. I have around 50 antique photos. I strictly collect those that are connected to Lansing, Michigan, our capital city.
      When you say it was copied and enlarged, what was it enlarged from? A CDV?

      Thanks!

      Your cabinet card was used to make a larger copy-- see notations on eye color and frame type and size as well.

      Alright, I understand. That makes complete sense.
      Thank you!

      Lansing-- you have met my stalker!

      As usual, he has nothing to add to the discussion.

      You can delete his comments (or any others you choose)-- you will see the delete comment on the right next to each comment.

      Thanks, Scott.
      Sorry that you have to have a stalker, you're very helpful! It's unfortunate that people have to ruin the fun of websites like this.
