DescriptionStudio portraits of boys, girls, and women. Ten cartes-de-visite by R.S. DeLamater appear to be Hartford Public High School graduation photographs, probably from the Class of 1885. Two women may be members of the Pickett family. Some women and girls wear jewelry, including earrings.
NotesSubject Note: The ten cartes-de-visite that have been identified as members of the Hartford Public High School Class of 1885 appear to belong to the same group as 2004.52.408, which is inscribed on verso in black ink, "Fred S. Mandlebaum / H.P.H.S. 85". (Finlay 8/31/2004)Status
