Highlights from my collection of nineteenth and early twentieth century photographs (cabinet photographs, cartes de visite (cdvs), albumen prints, real photographic postcards) of men with moustaches (or mustaches, depending on which side of the pond you hail from). We travel the world gleaning bits of information whilst admiring the expertly twirled moustaches on display.
Thur 3rd: India
One of my favourite photographs despite the fact that the man at the back on the left forgot to read the moustaches only rule...
Entomologists, India. A group of gentlemen with their collecting paraphernalia. Albumen print. (Click on the photographs for a larger view...)
