    No provenance other than my own identification of the famous Mark Twain as a young adult perhaps 30-40 yrs old.
    I have been recovering lost photograph of historical significance since 2019. If you are interested feel free to send a message to jazzresin@gmail.com

      Poor quality scan for comparison, but from what I see, not a strong resemblance to Twain.
