Inscription: "1857" written in pencil verso. No photographers stamp.
Notes: C1857-1861. "1857" is given verso and as the date beneath image of a closely related photograph; however, the photography firm was not active before 1860. Because Black & Batchelder took the other photograph, this image is attributed to them.
Associated Materials: 3007-1-2-1-1 was probably taken at the same photography session.
