The woman is wearing a couple of pieces of jewelry. She has a collar pin which has a photograph of a young white woman. On wonders if the photo is of someone that the subject knows or if it is just a beautiful model. The woman in this photograph is also wearing what appears to be a pocket watch. The timepiece is hanging from her blouse exposed between the lapels of her jacket. The woman has a nice smile and expressive eyes. An inscription on the reverse of this image indicates that the subject's name is Nora.   bmarshphd | January 28, 2015 at 12:00 pm | Tags: African-American, Brunswick, Maine | Categories: African Americans | URL: http://wp.me/pnHKU-3O5 Comment    See all comments Unsubscribe to no longer receive posts from THE CABINET CARD GALLERY.
