A cabinet card studio portrait of an unidentified man, by photographer Elkanah P. Tresslar, Los Angeles, ca. 1900s.

In his slightly extended right arm and hand he holds a top hat. The subject has short hair and a bushy handlebar mustache. With some small stains, darkening of the image, soiling and abrasions, the overall condition is good.
