James Alonzo Fairbanks

photographer: Fairbanks
Center Point, IA
example from LOST GALLERY

James Alonzo Fairbanks
(1849-1910)

Documentation is found showing that J. A. Fairbanks was a photographer in Center Point, IA, from about 1880 to 1900 when he moved to Washington, IA.

His son, Mark Roy Fairbanks (1875-1903) was also a photographer and perhaps apprenticed with his father. Mark was married in 1897, still in Center Point, IA, and then moved in 1899 to Washington, Iowa. He died four years later.

Considering this, the photographer for this cabinet card was probably James Alonzo Fairbanks, while still in Center Point, IA, between 1880 and 1897

Women Photographers of the Cabinet Card era - A

These pages are to develop a catalogue of the woman photographers during the Cabinet Card Era (about 1865 to 1900) in America. This is an ongoing project, adding names and examples as they are found. A work always in progress.

The central purpose in these pages is to help place a date on cabinet cards done by various photographers in various places. Here’s hoping you spot a card design or imprint that will help you date and identify that card in your collection.

Note that the examples here are not always cabinet cards, but the aim here is to collect female photographers who worked in the cabinet card era and cabinet card examples might be found.

These pages are for educational and informational purposes only. Any helpful suggestions are welcomed.

Links to additional information will be added when known.

One excellent resource is
The Classic: Women in the Dark, by Katherine Manthorne
EXAMPLES ARE FROM PRIVATE COLLECTIONS

Women who chose photography for their occupation during the
CABINET CARD ERA 1865 to 1900

Promoting the care, understanding and collection of this unique format of 19th century photography. They are more than 100 years old. Handle with care.
