Wonderful early Hawaiian studio portrait featuring an unidentified young man in formal attire, photographed by Perkins of Honolulu, T.H.
The portrait remains in its attractive period wood frame with distinctive dark tiger-grain style finish and original-looking neutral matting. The “PERKINS Honolulu T.H.” photographer/studio mark is visible beneath the portrait.
The Perkins name is documented in early Honolulu photography, making this especially appealing for collectors of Hawaiiana, territorial Hawaii memorabilia, antique photography, and early Honolulu history.
Overall measurements: approximately 9” x 6.25”
The photograph and frame show wonderful authentic age and character. Back retains the old hanging wire and paper covering.
Condition: Antique condition with visible age-related wear throughout. Frame has scattered scratches, finish wear and small marks. Matting and photograph show age/toning. The original paper backing is dry, torn and separating around the edges and will need to be taped or otherwise secured. Please review photos carefully for condition.
