Original 4.25 x 6.5 gilt-edged cabinet photo of Anthony in profile by C. M. Bell, signed at the bottom of the image in black ink, “Susan B. Anthony, Rochester, N.Y.,” and dated April 25, 1891. Studio info on the reverse reads: “Artistic C. M. Bell Photography, 463 and 4654 Penn. Ave., West End Branch, 701 Fifteenth St., Washington, D.C.” Irregular adhesion to the signature and a couple light pencil notations to the reverse, otherwise fine condition. Although she was reaching old age by the 1890s, Anthony was still incredibly active in the suffragist movement. In 1890, she organized the merge of two organizations into a single one, the National American Woman Suffrage Association, which she would become president of in 1892. Exceedingly rare in signed photos, this is just the third we have offered. RR Auction COA.
