Cabinet Card of Claude Eymard Dressed in samurai armour next to a bicycle
[Japan] Wonderful cabinet card photo of a young Claude Simon Eymard (1874-1932), who worked for C. Eymard & Co. (the company his father, Claude Nicolas Simon Eymard (1844-1908), established in Yokohama in 1885). It would seem the young Claude had a sense of humour as he thought it would be memorable to be photographed in samurai armour next to a bicycle (the old and the new?!). Inscribed on rear in French, 'Claude Eymard en Samourais'.
Photographer unidentified.
15.8 x 10.8cm.
In good condition. Some age wear and spotting but mostly on rear. nb37010012
