Description
Charming three-piece lot from the same studio sitting, c.1918-1930: an unused AZO real-photo postcard (divided back, AZO 2-up/2-down stamp box) plus two companion studio proof prints-a four-pose strip featuring a teddy bear and a small two-image print showing the child with a candlestick telephone and a mother-and-child pose. It’s unusual to find the proofs kept with the finished RPPC, giving a complete story of the session. AZO back indicates Kodak photographic postcard paper; no studio imprint present.
