Original late-1880s, circa 1890 cabinet card of an unidentified snake charmer sideshow woman, in costume, with a large snake draped around her neck. This is an image I have never seen before and I don't recognize the performer; considering that the photographer was a small floating gallery (literally a travelling studio located on a river), this was likely a very small operation and only a small handful of this exact image were ever made and probably few, if any other than this one, still exist.
The exact location of the studio is unknown, but there was a photographer named Nowack around Minneapolis at this time.... "Nowach" could've been an alternate spelling of the name that he used.
Cabinet card is 6.5" x 4.25". Good or better antique condition with light corner wear and corner bumps, light soiling. The back is blank with light soiling but is not damaged.
Shipping: First Class (flat photo mailer). Boxed Priority Mail is also available at checkout.
