The photographer Ed Wiekhorst from Hooper Neb

This is another Cabinet Card from Solway Minnesota.
nebraska lady Cabinet Card Solway
The dress is somewhat severe with close fitting sleeves, with a row of buttons and many rows of trim down the front.  The back of the dress looks like it is gathered..it may have had a bustle..I am not sure.  This young lady has a little style of her own..she has added a ribbon with scalloped edges that she tied around her neck.
The very ornate backdrop is spoiled a little by the straw looking matt on the floor.

This is the back of the Cabinet Card. The photographer Ed Wiekhorst from Hooper Neb was in business there in the 1880’s and 1890’s.
