This very unusual cabinet card photo shows a man side-by-side in two poses, an intentional double exposure. He is identified on the bottom as John J. Black, Character Comedian. On the left you see Mr. Black in everyday appearance, and on the right he appears in costume for the stage.

This was an innovative technique in these relatively early days of photography, and it is especially rare to find a stage performer’s photo in this format.

The card was produced by Foreman, in Grafton, West Virginia. The four corners have been trimmed, and there is an area of paper loss where a label has been removed at the top right corner.

This card will be packaged in a rigid plastic sleeve and bubble envelope, and shipped by prepaid first class mail, including postal insurance within the US.
