From the Collection of John Silverstein.

A period fan, with a host of spiffy snapshot portraits, that opens to a fairly large size. The slight wear indicates it was used regularly on hot summer days, but was also an unusual form of display that allowed the owner to decide: shall I enjoy the company of all my family and friends or a select group.
