    Description

    Up for grabs is this terrific original 1885 cabinet photo of circus and sideshow shownan P.T. Barnum by Charles Eisenmann of the Bowery in New York City, bearing either a fountain pen ink signature or very convincing printed autograph of Barnum-- More research would be required. The piece, which measures 4.25 x 6.25 inches, is in fine condition for its age-- 136 years old!-- with faint toning and scuffing to the verso and one negligible fleck of soiling to the front.
