Cabinet Card Superior Finish: Chronology



Figure 1.--This is the Gunter children. They were photographed in 1892. The mount inficates it was a Superior Finmish portrait. Notice the artist's palette logo.

Although these various finish systems appeared about the same time and almost entitely are noted in the 1890s. We have found several examples from the 1890s. It is possible there were examples in the late-1880s or early-1900s, but so far all the examples we have foond are from the 1890s. The size and shape ocabinet cards began to change at the turn-of-the 20th century. There were also differencolors and other changes. Th old classic style was aklso seen but gradually became less prevalent. We have not found examples of Superior Finish in the new style cabinet cards.
