An albumen print cabinet card photograph of a young man posing with a hat. Captured in studio against a bright backdrop, a dark-haired man stands with a hat balanced on his proper right arm. He wears a dark jacket, vest, trousers, and shoes, with a white long sleeve shirt and dotted necktie. The chain to a pocket watch hangs from a buttonhole on his vest. He wears a ring on his fourth proper left finger. A fringe embellished chair or stool is visible though faded on the right of the photograph.
