    Description

    Antique early 20th century, 1903, original cabinet photograph.  An intriguing image of a woman in full length Victorian dress wearing a massive hat and holding a fan and acoustic guitar.  The woman is identified in period ink at the base as
    Countess Ketchem
    .  Inscription on reverse side reads
    June 26, 1903 Forrest City, Ark
    .  A quick online search did not offer any clues in who this performer was and if she had any notoriety; perhaps someone more well versed in local history will know more about her.  Regardless, a great historic photograph that is quite worthy of further research.
    In Very Good overall condition.  Exhibits gentle failing.  Image is clean and crisp.  Matting is clean with gentle corner bumping.  Displays handsomely.  Comes housed in a protective clear plastic sleeve.
    Measures 4 3/4” x 3 3/4” and 6 1/2” x 5 1/2” with the matting.
