Description
[n.p., 1875. Carte de Visite format, 2-1/2" x 4", albumen print on card mount: Photographic portrait of John McGuire, a dwarf, dressed in the usual fancy suit and top hat popular with dwarf performers at the time. No printed caption or imprint appears. A pencil notation beneath the photo "Coll. Mcguire." Minor dust. Very Good. Col. John McGuire, a dwarf perfomer, has been the subject of a only handful of carte-de-visites from what our research showed. There is one example very similar to ours held in the Ronald G. Becker Collection of Charles Eisenmann Photographs at Syracuse University and dated about 1875.
