| Although probably not unique this double sided Cabinet Photograph in the only such example that I have come across. The front image picture above shows a British soldier wearing athletic garb typical of the late 19th Century. Most regiments had established physical fitness programs established for members of the ranks and inter-regimental competitions and exhibition were quite popular. Note the two dumb bells at his feet. The image on the reverse of the card shows an unidentified artilleryman. I am unsure if the two images are of the same man or not. Cabinet Photograph Unknown Photographer Unknown Location c. 1900 |
