Antique early 20th century sepia-toned studio portrait photograph of an unidentified woman, presented in its original folding studio portrait folder.
The woman is shown in a full-length formal studio pose wearing a long dark period dress with a large contrasting white collar.
The presentation folder has an embossed studio marking that includes “Studio” and “Danville, Ill.” The studio name itself is faint and difficult to read with certainty.
Estimated date: Circa 1910s-1920s based on the clothing, portrait style, photographic presentation, and construction of the studio folder.
Condition:
Antique pre-owned condition with substantial age-related wear. The photograph shows fading, toning, surface marks, and noticeable silvering/mirroring, particularly toward the lower portion. The original folder has edge wear, fraying, discoloration, and general deterioration from age. Please review all photos carefully for exact condition.
A striking original Danville, Illinois portrait with tons of period character. Great for collectors of antique photography, Illinois history, genealogy, early 20th century fashion, Victorian/Edwardian-era decor, historical ephemera, or unusual vintage portraits.
Original antique photograph and original presentation folder included.
