[Boston, MA: Annie Louise Richards, 394 Beacon Street, August, 1895]. Oblong folio. 15 x 12 in. 9 leaves on thick card stock, w/ mounted silver print photographs sized 6.5 x 8 in, all carefully annotated on verso in manuscript w/ negative numbers, identification, and Richards’ address. Contemporary three-quarter red morocco over pebbled red cloth, gilt borders, raised bands on spine (chipping, wear, front hinge split, endpapers removed), still good exemplar, w/ all photos in excellent condition. The album includes a series of images of a stately Queen Anne Victorian summer home in Magnolia, Massachusetts, featuring a wide well-shaded veranda & wraparound porch, climbing vines and plantings growing up the porch pillars, well-appointed surrounding gardens, beautiful balcony with curved canvas shade, as well as an extra cottage nearby. Following the Civil War, Magnolia, MA grew into a popular summer village for well-to-do Boston families, attracting celebrities as well, and families often situated their homes with views of Kettle Cove. Annie Richards (b. 1853) was the daughter of Calvin Richards (1828-1892) noted Boston merchant, and later director of the Metropolitan Street Railroad. He retired in 1887 to become a real estate developer and landlord of the “Richards” office building at No. 114 State St. Annie worked as a photographer, and artist, as well as served as companion to her mother, Ann Babcock Richards (1832-1923). The 1900 & 1910 census records list Annie Richards working on her “own account” out of 394 Beacon St., and although she is listed in several street directories along with her mother, we could find no death record for her.
