[Joslin Hall Rare Books, Ephemera & Photographs]

1890s Bourne & Sheperd of India Bearded Gentleman Carte de Visite.

“Bourne & Shepherd was an Indian photographic studio and one of the 
oldest established photographic businesses in the world. Established in 
1863, at its peak, it was the most successful commercial firm in 
19th-and early 20th-century India, with agencies all over India, and 
outlets in London and Paris, and also ran a mail order service. A 
devastating fire in 1991 destroyed much of the studio's photographic 
archive and resulted in a severe financial loss to the firm. The fire, 
legal difficulties with the Indian government, and digital technology, 
finally forced the studio's closure in 2016. At its closure, the studio 
had operated continuously for 176 years” [Wikipedia].

Carte de Visite. 2.5”x4”. Minor wear, light soil. [45121]  $65
