Antique CDV Circa 1880s S. A. Edmiston Cute Baby in White Dress Moberly MO

This original CDV captures a portrait of a cute baby wearing a traditional white dress. Produced by the photographer S. A. Edmiston, the image reflects the careful studio staging of the era, featuring the infant posed prominently to showcase the intricate folds and bright fabric of the garment.

Dating to circa the 1880s, this photograph serves as a charming piece of social history from Moberly, Missouri. The soft expression of the child and the crisp detail of the Victorian fashion offer a clear window into late 19th-century portraiture.

Collectors of regional Missouri history or 1880s photography will appreciate this specific Edmiston studio work. It is a classic example of an antique carte de visite featuring a sweet Moberly subject.
