Victorian teen Mc Bracken of Waterloo, Wisconsin

By C.E. Ryan

Close-up of cabinet card portrait. Private Collection.

Photogenic teen Mc Bracken with the dark eyes is wearing a mix of patterns with a moon tie stack to bring it all together over the overlapping collar. I give this card a broad window from the 1880s to early 1900s.

The card’s also a rarer shade of pink with dark pink lettering on the front. The back is plain except for the sitter’s written last name.

  You asked to see some of my booth photos that were questionable as to whether the sitter was male or female? Here are the links!

  that one turned out to be, as I thought, definitely a man.

  This one, I think, turned out to definitely be a woman.
