Emperor of Germany and King of Prussia (born 1831) for only 99 days before his death in 1888. Albumen photo, 4 x 5.25, affixed to a 9.5 x 12 album page, signed in ink on a printed photographer’s slip beneath the image “Frederick William, Crown Prince, 1874.” The reverse bears several unsigned captioned period photos of members of the Prussian royal family. In good condition, with soiling, toning, and tears to mount (which could be largely matted out), a few light spots and impressions to image, and somewhat indistinct contrast of signature against printed background. R&R COA.
