Figure 1.--This American boy was John Dyer named as Johnny on the back of the cabinet card. He looks to be about 8-9 years old. The most destintive aspect of the portrait is Johnny's a little off center ceter part and the swept up sides. We have no idea how to identify this hair style, surely the wotk of a very fashion concious moter. He has an Eton collar and large floppy bow. He looks to be wering a collar buttoning jacket. Notice the jacket belt, an element of Norfol styling. His outfit is completed with knee pants, long stockings, and high-top shoes. The studio was C.E. Shorey in Augusta, Maine.
