Union Gallery of Dallas, Texas

photographer: Union Gallery
1131 Elm Street, Dallas, TX
example from LOST GALLERY
Enhanced version

Dallas city directories 1875 through 1920 make no mention of a Union Gallery or any photo studio at 1131 Elm Street. It is possible the card was made as a novelty after 1920 but considering the costume of the subject, probably not.

The card itself is light weight, about 6 ply, with rounded corners, straight cut non-beveled edges.

Not the one you were looking for? Here's the photographer's INDEX by name. All the Cabinet Card photographers of the 19th century found in LOST GALLERY are listed there.

This is a work always in progress.

Aditional information and New examples are always welcome. Any additional information will help narrow the time that these precious antiques were made.

All submissions should be free of glare and shadows.
Do not crop.
Leave a border around each card. The edges are sometimes an important clue to the age of the card.
