Photographic Cabinet Card Mounts: Backs


Figure 1.--This cabient card was taken by Bishop, a photgrapher with astudio in several small Nebraska towns. Note the uncolored mount with simple green lettering. There is agreen line rule just below the portrait.

Several different colors were used for the printed lettering on the cards which identifying the photographer and location. We notice many different colors being used.Usually the same color was used on the front and back. We do not yet know just what the color trends were and the chronological pattern if any. This was often the same color as borders, but we will consider borders separately. The color trends may have varied from country to country. That is another question we needed to address.
