Antique Cabinet Card Photograph. Identified as Bessie H. Smith, Class of 1897. We know the initials of her high school were W.H.S. because this photo came with that of another classmate (sold separately) from the same photography studio and date. Photo by Purdy Studio, Boston, Massachusetts. Measures approximately 4.25 x 6.5 including mount. Condition: This is an original photograph, not a copy or reproduction. It is in excellent condition.
