Cabinet-card format albumen print showing two female Salvation Army officers circa 1885. With photographer's imprint on reverse of card reading "A. R. Gould / Photographic Artist / Corner of 3d & Washington Strs / East Liverpool, Ohio." A pencil inscription on reverse also identifies the sitters as "Capt. Francie Em[sel?] and Lieut. Amanda Rawlins of the 5th Ohio Corps Salvation Army East Liverpool, Ohio."   Price: $45.   ( Inventory# id355 )

The woman at left, although certainly an adult, appears much shorter than her companion and is perhaps an example of dwarfism.
