Lot 84

Three cdvs by Glosser. Craig’s Registry lists a Henry Glosser with a couple of Broadway locations in the late 1850’s but not this address. The portrait of the young tall lad is quite striking as he wears an unusual outfit. Possibly it is school attire but maybe this is an occupational image of a young apprentice. The next is an adorable young girl with a great facial expression of judgment or distrust! She wears a beautiful striped dress, and we love the short haircut that is pinned in the back. The other is a young woman in profile. We love the upward gaze as that is not something we normally see in a pose. The boy and girl’s images have strong tones and contrast while the woman’s portrait has a softer touch. There is light wear as seen. This was part of an album consigned to us which featured Civil War, singers and author photos.
