Subject: [Leica] IMG: 1874 Studio Portrait

Today I received a scan of an early studio portrait by a small town 
photographer.  This image was made by Frank Saunders, of Aberdeen, 
Mississippi, around 1874, and shows my grandmother at around age 2.  She 
died in 1905, 25 years before I was born.

I did some cleanup work in PSE 6.0, primarily spot and stain removal, but 
did not want to alter the character of his work.
