Figure 1.--This cabinet portrait shows an American boy wearing a Fauntleroy blouse and floppy bow with long ringlet curls. The ringlets are not as well defibed as was often the case, but he has a large curl on the top of his hed. He wears white pants that look go be knickers, but this is not ebtirely sure. Even though he wears a white outfit (blouse and pants), he wears black long stockings. He also has high-top shoes which were common at the time. Written on the verso is: "Lawrence Ray Gard, Age 5, Taken 1904." The photographer was Burnham with no location indicated. The green-grey cabinet mount is one of the new styles that became popular at the turn-of-the 20th century. The white whicker furniture is another indicator of the early-20th century.
