Description: This is a Carte de Visite (CDV), which is French for "visiting card." These small photo cards were commonly traded and collected by people in the 19th century; most popular in the 1860s. Standard-size Carte de Visite, measuring about 2.5 x 4 inches. Photographed by J. S. Patterson in Pulaski, Tennessee. The August 20, 1885, edition of the Pulaski Citizen included an advertisement stating: "THE PULASKI ART GALLERY is now opened for business. The best chance you ever had to get first-class pictures at reasonable prices. So come at once and bring all your family. Everything in first-class style. J. S. Patterson, Operator." For the next 12-15 years, J. S. Patterson was Pulaski's leading photographer. Although he closed his gallery several times and moved away, he always returned. Will be shipped safely and securely! All of my paper items are protected in archival-safe polypropylene sleeves and packaged in rigged cardboard.
