N48 and educating the educated

Craig- Yes, I have noticed that too though I have only seen very few without the borders.

Alan- Not sure if they were marketed to women or not. My guess is they were marketed to men moreso than women. In the 1880's women were sort of 2nd class citizens (at least with the rights they were given and how they were thought of).

Shawn- Same woman, different pose. Same backdrop....Both of these cards measure the same and were cropped differently. I was mainly just posting to get back into the swing of it after the new site debacle. The clouds, as opposed to sunshine, are in Dallas this morning so I need to do something to cheer me up....And I was giving a thumbs up to the grading companies as well as a bit of education for those that want to learn more. I am no expert on these but have handled quite a few...regards

I should clarify that the main intent of this thread was to expose folks to the borderless versions of N48.
