Hi, I saw this on ebay and thought someone might be interested. It is not my sale.
Item number: 6276309291
Very nice Spokane Bailey studio cabinet card of a uniformed mail carrier proudly touting his profession. I was told by the seller that he was a postmaster of Spokane, yet I can't confirm that. I do know he was a Civil War vet from his GAR ribbon in previous photos I had sold last month. He is identified on back as, "E.W. Carson." In a close up image I have shown he was carrying HARPER'S BAZAAR and The Spokane Review. This is one I was going to hold on to for some time but that family vacation came to mind and as Jim Kramer would say,"SELL, SELL, SELL!"
