    This is a sepia-toned 19th Century Carte de Visite of a Baby Playing Peekaboo with a Blanket, which has been entitled "Bo-Peep."  The image appears to be a photograph of a print, which shows a smiling baby holding a patterned blanket over his head as he plays peekaboo.  The cherubic child appears to be wearing a diaphanous cloth that clips at the hip and at the shoulder.  The photograph has been attached to an unmarked cardboard backing which measures 4" high by 2.4375" wide.  Maker and exact age are unknown.  This 19th century Carte de Visite of a Baby Playing Peekaboo with a Blanket is in very good condition with no wear or damage.  The backing has some minor staining.
