This photo shows a guy named (Professor) John Henry Anderson. It was made in the mid-1800s by W. S. Parry. The photo is small, printed on card—early celebrity pics people collected like trading cards. Anderson was a famous magician back then. The photo helped spread his name far beyond the stage. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more early photography.
