Original late-1870s CDV of a tobacco seller with his display of cigarette and snuff samples and advertising photos of actresses.
He is not identified on this image, but he looks a lot like Charles Dunning Larus, who along with his brother operated the extremely successful Larus & Brother Tobacco Company in Richmond. See listing photo #2 for a comparison photo... note that photo #2 is provided here for reference only and the original or a hard copy is not included.
Photographed at the famous C.R. Rees studio in Richmond, Virginia. This 4" x 2.5" is in very good or better antique condition with a blank back. Rare!
