That is correct Josh, it is the only Hanlon in street clothes portrait I'm aware of from 1887. Actually, all the 1887 portraits I'm aware of, in street clothes, are only known copies. Kind of makes them difficult to collect. There are however other earlier known cabinets of Hanlon in street clothes such as the attached copy (from 1883). I personally prefer cabinets in uniform but collect both.
Good luck with the auction, you have some real nice items.
