Summary[edit]

Description Photograph of Blanche Roosevelt. Print on card mount ; mount 16 x 11 cm (cabinet card format)
Date between circa 1870
date QS:P,+1870-00-00T00:00:00Z/9,P1480,Q5727902
and 1898[1] Most likely 1879 or 1880, though, as that's when she went to New York, where Mora worked, to be in The Pirates of Penzance, and it's not dissimilar to the photo of her by Napoleon Sarony which is better dated to that time.
