[circa 1910].
Price: $500.00
Unbound. Two gelatin silver portraits of Meta Fuller, Upton Sinclair's first wife. Each is approximately 4" x 4½", mounted on thin card stock. Penciled stock or inventory numbers on each. Images are about fine, the edges of the card mount are a little worn. Fuller was married to Sinclair from 1900 to 1911 at which time she left him for the vagabond poet Harry Kemp. Each image is similar, of Fuller in a casual white dress, seated on a porch in front of verdant greenery, presumably in Arden, Delaware, where they lived for much of their marriage. The images are reminiscent of posed press photographs but it is possible that they are vernacular.
