This cabinet card portrait shows Hooper J. Jacks in a knickers sailor suit. Notice the flat cap he wears rather thsn a sailor cap. Hooper's sailor suit is a striped suit. It is a light-colored suit, but we are not sure sbout the color. He wears the light-colored sailor with black long stockings which were very common at the time. The portrait was taken on May 15, 1903. The size is 5 1/4 X 9 1/8 centimeters. The studio was Marham & Bibent, 810 Mission St., San Francisco, Calfornia. The portrait was the new style cabinet card with a textured frame. While it is a studio cabinet card, the portrait was taken outside. We are not sure if Hooper's parents hired the studio to take outside shots (which would have been expensuve) or if they supplied a family snapshot because they wsanted a cabinet card.
