Figure 1.--Emery Washington Elliot was 3 1/2 years old when his portrait was taken at the Perkins studio in San Francisco. Emery wears dark a plaid kilt suit with a bow and ruffled collar. The bow is what suggests the early 80s to us, even perhaps the late 70s. It is not the floppy bow style that was so popular in the 1880s. He also has striped stockings and high-top shoes. His hair is cut short with a side part.

Emery Washington Elliot was 3 1/2 years old when his portrait was taken at the Perkins studio in San Francisco. The cabinent card is undated, but it looks to be from the early 1880s. Emery wears dark a plaid kilt suit with a bow and ruffled collar. Unfortunately we do not have a high-quality scan and thus cannot make out the collar abd bow very well.
