1901 Matty image
I picked-up this "relic" last year and have been trying to ID/date the image. The image is about 4" X 5" and it is from a publication, as there is print on the back (although, this baby is taped and glued like is was trying to get away). I presume, some kid/fan constructed this thing, then when the paper image was showing signs of wear, packing tape was applied to further protect the image. Check out the back, there's a picture hanger and even cooler- a kickstand! I thought is was from TSL based on the size and medium, but have only found the same image used in a June 7, 1901 newspaper.
