1871-1873 CDV PHOTO ALBUM of EUROPE PUT TOGETHER by CHILDREN'S BOOK AUTHOR ANNIE HAVEN THWING
by Annie Haven Thwing
- Used
9" x 6 1/4" Victorian photo album full of 69 carte de visites. 20 leaves total/ 35 pages in use. All but 5 inserts contain photos.
Of the handful of CDVs I pulled out from the page, these locations were noted: Frankfurt, Germany; Versailles, France, Liverpool, U.K, and the Grotte au Glacier a Grindelwald in 1871 (where two men hold hands to keep steady along the ice.) Of the CDVs pulled, few were provided with credit to the photographer, named: Henry Sampson, A. Gabler, and another attributed to Chris Krause in Berlin. There is plenty more to be seen if this album is pulled apart in full.
CDVs are of sepia tone. Inserts measure 2 1/16" x 3 1/14" with decorative edge. The edge of each page is colored red with an embossed golden pattern. The cover exhibits wear and distress. A latch mechanism is only half intact. Apparently unrelated, a bookplate graces the inside front cover reads: Flag and Staff Erected 1862 with the signature of "Annie Haven Thwing", with photo of flag and staff provided. Thwing (1851-1940) was an American historian and children's author. She is known for her research of Boston, Massachusetts.
