I finally picked up her first card, a 1962 Dutch Gum issue.

A pretty late CDV, of the future King Edward VII. I believe this to be a rather unprofessional 1890's creation.

Thank you, Peter. Cecil goes to my desk display

Marie Antoinette, who can't have been half as bad as they said.

And a Napoleon, one of the great men of history, I got a few days ago for a few bucks. The cabinet is not actually unbranded; there is some upside down text with part of an address and the studio at the top. The picture was pasted on upside down, so it is covering most of the caption. It wasn't supposed to have a big white blank space.

Wilhelm II and his family.

This is my wheelhouse….the raw Lee is the toughest in the group (N419). Much tougher than the fabled T206 Wagner as a comparison.
