Langdon Lea , William Church Cabinet Card (Inscribed)

 

We originally owned three copies of this cabinet card and decided on keeping this one for our collection. It is inscribed from Langdon Lea "yours sincerely, "The Kid", and was kept by the grandchildren of William W. Church, as is described on the reverse in red pencil. Church, a Princeton All-American (1896) and Langdon Lea, Princeton, three time All-American (1893, 94, 95). Lea is pictured on the 1894  Mayo Cut Plug set of cards.

 Pach Bros receipt to W.W. Church for twelve photos of self for $3.00, that may have been for the pictured cabinet card and the others mentioned in the write-up above.
