Figure 1.-- This is a CDV photo of a “Rudy Lagai, Esq.”. I am not sure what kind of name that is. It is not a common American name. The portrait was taken by F. Dessaur, New York City. I think it was probably taken in 1962 or 63, partly because there is no Federal Revenue stamp. It could, however, been taken after 1866. Rudy wears a light-colored two-piece suit.

Rudy Lagai (United States, 1860s)

This is a CDV photo of a “Rudy Lagai, Esq.”. I am not sure what kind of name that is. It is not a common American name. The portrait was taken by F. Dessaur, New York City. I think it was probably taken in 1962 or 63, partly because there is no Federal Revenue stamp. It could, however, been taken after 1866. Rudy wears a light-colored two-piece suit. The sleeves of the jacket are cut full with a cuff to gather them at the wrist. It is a collar buttoning jacket. As common at the time there is a waist band covering the bottom of the jacket ad top of the pants which are done as knee pnts. Rudi also wears white stockings.
