Man in Bowler with Pointer, Moody Antique Cabinet Card, Red Bank, NJ memories and there is some lacquer

and there is some lacquer loss to the underside of the box

I'm a total sucker for a good puppet

folded across the front of what I'm sure must be a bible

a silversmith in Amesbury

Man in Bowler with Pointer, Moody Antique Cabinet Card, Red Bank, NJ memories and there is some lacquerI just love these too, who seem very right for each other, both with a quiet intensity look at their eyes. Something too about how this man holds one hand in the other, with the pinky free on the held one, and then a pinky ring on the other as if an offset. Feels like there is a bit of underlying tension here, waiting to be released! An a nice moodiness about the hole photo too. (Andrew R.) Coleman photographer, Red Bank, NJ, last decade 19th century
