Antique Cabinet Card Photograph Circus Performer Juggler
Original circa 1890 cabinet card of a circus juggler in full costume, photographed by A. Carmichael, who owned several studios in Minnesota. Although not identified, this photo was acquired along with a second cabinet card relating to the U. Marshal named William Almich and a photo I found online of Almich looks almost identical to this juggler… O I believe there’s a good chance that this juggler was the Marshal Wm. Cabinet card is 6.5″ x 4.25″ and in overall VG antique condition with blank, clean back. There is a light scratch on the front, does not detract from the image.

C. 1890s Circus Clowns cabinet card photograph music hall Halle an der Saale
A stunning 11cm by 16.7cm cabinet card photograph by the German photographer Otto Gebhart, who was working in Halle an der Saale (latterly in East Germany), probably in the 1890s. The image shows three clowns in full makeup and costume. They stand in front of a table around which are ranged a huge variety of musical instruments as well as balls and conical hats and their costumes also have a musical theme, suggesting that these clowns played tunes and juggled at the same time, either in a circus or a Music Hall. A rare image, a little faded and with a few light marks on the reverse, but generally in very good condition and still retaining gold banding and titling. The banner does not appear on the actual item, as can be seen by the subsequent photos. BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UK. Quotes for AUSTRALIA and USA are accurate.
