This early CDV portarit is of Herbert Newton Lockwood. He look to be about 5 years old. The back of the card indicated that Herbert was born December 10, 1863. That would mean that the CDV was taken about 1868. Herbert wears a cut-away jacket suit with a vest. The pants are cut shot, but are hardly knee pants. They do show the trend of shorter-cut pants for younger boys. The pants leg hem is kust above the ankles. Herbert has white stockings as were common in the 1860s. He also has a small white collar and ribbon bow. We are not sure precisely how to describe his hair. The hair is draw back in front to create a larg roll curl at the crown along with ringlet curls at the side and back. The studio was Chas (Charls) Tomlinson in New Britain, Connecticut.
