Description

Extraordinary circa 1880 signed cabinet portrait

Magnificent early 4.25 x 6.25 cabinet photo of the young inventor circa 1880 by Anderson of New York, perfectly signed in black ink with his classic 'umbrella' signature, "Thomas A. Edison." In fine condition, with a lightly trimmed top border, and two miniscule pin holes near the top edge. This exquisite image dates to around the time that Edison introduced the incandescent light bulb, one of the most significant inventions of modern times.
