FROM THE JOHN HUGHES NORTON ESTATE. Other items listed separately unless otherwise sold.
A late 19th-century Victorian photograph album measuring approximately 8.5 x 11 inches, containing 49 original photographs including a mix of cabinet cards, CDVs (cartes de visite), and tintypes. The album is bound in a worn cloth-covered board with metal clasp hardware and decorative gilt page frames typical of the 1880s–1890s period.
All pages and all photographs are shown in this listing. Every page of the album has been photographed, and all 49 images are fully visible—there are no additional photos beyond what is pictured. The album is partially filled, with remaining empty slots.
The images include men, women, and children in formal studio and posed settings. There is a strong Massachusetts presence, with several mounts identified to Boston and Springfield, MA, including a desirable Elmer Chickering, Boston studio example. The grouping appears family-related and comes from the NORTON FAMILY estate (Los Angeles & New York). Other items from this estate are listed separately unless otherwise sold.
