About this product
This antique large photo album dates between 1860-1890s and includes 57 original cabinet photos. It also features a unique secret space in the back, potentially for ink or other small items. The album is unframed, presented in black and white, and focuses on figures and portraits from the era, originating from the United States.
Our take
This antique photo album is a remarkable find, primarily for its historical content. The inclusion of 57 original cabinet photos from the 1860-1890s is its biggest draw, offering a genuine glimpse into the past. The "secret space in back for ink" is a quirky, interesting detail that adds to its vintage charm, though its practical use today is minimal. As a small-sized album with black and white portraits, it's a specific collector's item. The price reflects its antique nature and the quantity of original photographs it contains, making it an investment for history enthusiasts rather than a functional modern album.
