Cabinet cards were a popular photographic format in the late 19th century. They were introduced in the 1860s and gained widespread popularity in the 1880s. These cards typically measured 4.25 inches by 6.5 inches and featured a photographic print mounted on a sturdy cardboard backing.

The larger size of cabinet cards compared to earlier formats like cartes de visite allowed for more detailed and elaborate portraits. Photographers often incorporated elaborate backdrops, props, and poses to create visually striking images. Cabinet cards were popular for family portraits, individual portraits, and even group photos.

The decline of cabinet cards began in the late 19th century with the advent of new photographic technologies and formats. However, they remain a significant part of photographic history and are highly sought after by collectors.
