Description
A real photo postcard studio portrait of a black couple, World Wonders Post Card Studio, Los Angeles, ca. 1910. The image shows the man, wearing a dark suit and light colored shirt and hat, seated in a dark wood armchair. The woman, wearing a dark full-length dress with a white lace front and a dark hat, stands to his left with one hand on his left arm and the other apparently on the chair back. There is a studio backdrop and what looks to be a table with some kind of covering. The unused card has the studio name and address stamped on the reverse. With minor soiling, edge abrasions, and fading, the condition is good.
