This 1889 cabinet card, part of the "Actresses" series by William S. Kimball & Company, features Belle Urquhart. The image depicts Urquhart in a formal pose, dressed in a lace-trimmed bodice and gloves. The card, printed for promotional purposes, showcases Urquhart's popularity as an actress during the late 19th century, and highlights the connection between entertainment and tobacco products. The card's simple yet elegant design makes it an interesting piece of ephemera from a time when photography was a rapidly evolving art form.
