Cabinet card measuring 3 1/2" x 6" featuring a printed souvenir mount titled “A Souvenir of our School” with an oval portrait photograph inserted within a decorative frame motif. The printed mount includes ornamental scrollwork, floral elements, a large illustrated vase, and a stack of books, with the photographic portrait of a young man placed within the printed frame. The card is copyrighted, as indicated at lower left.
The oval portrait shows a young man wearing a dark coat and high white collar, posed in three quarter view. His hair is neatly parted and combed, and he wears a waistcoat beneath his coat. The photographic image is mounted within a printed design simulating a framed picture resting against books, reinforcing the academic theme.
The printed text on the mount reads:
“A Souvenir of our School”
“Let fate do her worst, there are moments of joy,
Bright dreams of the past, which she cannot destroy:
Which come in the night time of sorrow and care,
And bring back the features that joy used to wear.
—Moore.”
“Compliments of
Your Teacher.”
“COPYRIGHTED.”
No photographer’s imprint visible on the front.
