We know the boy in this cabinet card was Albert Martin, but we know very little about him, except that he was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Albert looks to be about 6 years old. He wears what looks like a Norfol jacket, with the vertical pleats, but without a belt. He has a chain with we assume va pocket watch in a pocket of the pleats. It is a knee pants suit, worn with black long stockings. This was a standard suit, but Albert is wearing with a Fauntleroy blouse. The portrait is not dated, but looks like the 1890s. We see a soda fiountain chair. The studio was Gomber in Milwaukee
