This comprehensive work will be appreciated by amateur and
professional collectors as a long awaited composite guide to card
photographs spanning nearly a century of examples dating from salt
prints to picture postcards. The over three hundred illustrations
are accompanied not only with value and dating guidelines, but also
historical background on the development of the various card types.
Included are family portraits, famous personalities, the frontier
West, Civil War scenes, theatrical cards, oddities, foreign
landscapes, and studio novelties. In fact, the profusely
illustrated text is a documentary of a bygone era.
