* COMPLETED * Date for this little girl and TLC

[Rapunzel]

The card has nothing on the back, It is thin with rounded corners as you can see. I'd like to have a date and hope that her dress makes it easy. She also needs a clean and tidy please.

Mid-late 1870's.I'm not sure what's going on behind this curtain.I can just detect what looks like a gloved hand holding the book.The poor lamb also looks like she's been clamped to a posing stand,unusual in the 1870's.Must have been a bit of a fidget.

Agree with Jim 1870s, but the rest of the scene is quite a bit earlier...the blank backdrop and the out-of-focus rug. The photographer must have been a bit behind the times. Or maybe a bit earlier in the decade? The dress and the chair are definitely 70s, so possibly more mid than late? Rounded corners came out in around 1875ish.

Can you imagine how much cat hair the fringe on the chair could collect?

I've been staring at this for a while looking for a hand holding the book but don't see one. The girl's sleeves are quite frilly and that might be what Jim's seeing.

Or perhaps he's left his specs on the nightstand again. Next to the glass with the teeth in it.

Hiya Jim

Cheers,
China

Thank you Jim and china for the dating and comments. The determined look on her face would fit well with a fidget who had been clamped down and couldn't wait to get free again.

Thank you Caroline and Carol for the great restores - colours are lovely.
