Albumen advertising photograph mounted on a printed trade card for P.C. Lynne, Artistic Photographer, Robert Street, Crookston, Minnesota. The small central portrait shows a young man in formal dress, likely dating to the late 19th century.

The mount advertises the photographer’s services including enlarging, copying, crayon portraits, photographs in all sizes, as well as frames, mouldings, albums, views, and tintypes. Such photographic advertising mounts are less commonly encountered than standard studio imprints and document the commercial practices of regional photographers.

Printed mount reads “P.C. Lynne, Artistic Photographer” with address on Robert Street, Crookston, Minnesota.
