Description

A studio portrait of Jordan Blake by George Steckel, Los Angeles, 19 May 1893. The view is a head-and-shoulders shot of the young boy with a thick, curly head of hair and wearing a black satin-like outfit. Steckel's name and address is at the bottom of the mount. On the reverse is an ink inscription "Jordan Blake / 3 years 2 month May 19/93." With some heavy soiling, stains and edge rubbing, the condition is fair.
