Figure 1.--This cabinet portrait shows a little boy leaning on a carpet covered chair. He is dressed in a kilt suit with frog adornments. There is a small polkadot nbow, but not large collar which haf become popular. He also has black long stockings, and high button shoes. The photograph was taken at the Stanley studio located Opposite American Hotel, 253 Broad St Waverly, New York City. It is claims 'Extra Finish'. The boys name written on the back is Wesley Lamont De Laney. Wesley according to the dealer was born in 1883 in Pennsylvania. He looks to be about 4 years old, so if the birth date is right the portrait would have been taken about 1887. At the time lrge bows and collars had become very popular, but as we see here were not universal.
