2 Antique Victorian Child Cabinet Card Photos H.R. Rice c1890s 6.5x4.25

Pair of 2 original antique Victorian-era cabinet card photographs featuring children in period clothing, dating approximately to the late 1800s, likely 1880s–1890s. Both cards measure approximately 6.5 x 4.25. The first photograph features an older girl standing beside an elaborate studio chair or furnishing. She wears a long button-front dress with a decorative collar, dark stockings, and period shoes. The second photograph features a younger child posed beside a studio pedestal decorated with flowers or foliage. The child wears a plaid dress with a large decorative collar and necklace or pendant. The younger child's photograph is marked on the reverse with the photographer/studio name “H. R. Rice.” The older girl's card does not carry the H. R. Rice identification. Both photographs show authentic age-related wear, including fading, toning, spotting/discoloration, and normal edge and corner wear. Please examine photographs carefully for exact condition. These are original antique photographs, not modern reproductions. A nice pair for collectors of Victorian photography, cabinet cards, antique children's portraits, historical fashion, genealogy, or 19th-century photographic ephemera. Sold together as a pair of 2 photographs.
