Cupid’s Post & Telegraph Office



With its combination of Cupid's Telegraph and the Matrimonial Camera, this very early example of the genre fuses two 'magical' technologies of the age. Advances in telegraphy and photography brought them into widespread use by the late 19th century, which would appear to be the date of this machine, judging by the studio cameras depicted.



James Fuller  
1890s
