Agustina Otero Iglesias, later famous as La Belle Otero, one of the Beautiful Era's most beloved dancers, was born on this very day! (the day we're listing this lovely card by Paul Boyer), November 4th, in the year 1868.
Here we see her, dressed to the nines, and with a smile as bright and warming as the Galician sun. Happy Birthday, Senora Otero :)
We did do quite a lot of research on La Belle Otéro, and if you follow the link below, you can enjoy several photographs of this dancer, posters of her from the period, a concise but detailed biography, and even an early film clip of her dancing!

Please examine our high res scans for detail.
Postage is for first class shipping in a secure photo mailer, and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, the price is the same as for a single card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, due to the costs of international shipping will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more. We do not charge for insurance or shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
