Albumen cabinet card photograph depicting a young girl posed as a witch seated on a studio “paper moon” prop against a dark backdrop. She wears a pointed witch’s hat topped with a small owl figure and holds a broom across her lap. A comet and small star accents are visible in the background, creating a staged nighttime scene.

The mount is printed Geo. Cross, Southport along the lower front margin. The verso reads Geo. Cross, Photographer, The Studio, 15 Cambridge Arcade, Southport, with printed line Duplicates May Always Be Had.

The hat is a theatrical pointed witch’s hat adorned with a decorative owl figure perched at the crown, consistent with late 19th century studio costume props.
