Description

Carte-de-visite portrait of a young man or teen in a suit. The man has dark hair, parted on his right side, and his tie (ascot or neckerchief?) is striped. There is a thin, dark border on the card, framing the image. Printed on the back in a bronze-toned ink is the text "B. B. RICE,/ PHOTOGRAPHER,/ EDGERTON,/ WIS./" This text is within a printed picture of a cloth banner hanging from an plant, which is in a vase on a table. Printed below the image is "NEGATIVES PRESERVED." This is likely a relative of Minnie and Floyd Burdick.
