This sepia-toned image captures Oakley in three-quarter profile, wearing her trademark wide-brimmed hat adorned with a star pin and an elaborate display of medals and shooting awards across her bodice. The card features the photographer's imprint at the bottom: \"Stacy\" with \"5th Ave. \u0026amp; 9th St., Brooklyn, N.Y.\" and Oakley's name, \"Annie Oakley,\" printed elegantly in period script.

Joining Buffalo Bill's Wild West show in 1885, Oakley dazzled audiences across the United States and Europe with her extraordinary shooting feats. She could shoot distant targets while aiming backward using a mirror, split playing cards edge-on, and hit coins tossed in mid-air. Oakley's persona blended the toughness of a frontier woman with a ladylike demeanor, challenging gender norms of the era. Her fame extended beyond performance, making her a symbol of American opportunity, precision, and resilience. Photographs of Oakley, especially in her performance attire adorned with medals, are highly prized for capturing the spirit of the Wild West at its peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1723\" data-end=\"2546\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1723\" data-end=\"1766\"\u003eHistorical Context – Stacy Photography:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1766\" data-end=\"1769\"\u003e\nThe Stacy studio, operated by George G. Stacy, was one of Brooklyn's premier photography establishments in the late 19th century. Located at the corner of 5th Avenue and 9th Street, Stacy specialized in portrait photography, producing cabinet cards noted for their clarity, composition, and elegant presentation. Unlike the larger New York City studios, Stacy maintained a regional reputation for capturing prominent figures who toured the Northeast. Cabinet cards by Stacy featuring major national celebrities like Annie Oakley are particularly rare, as many of Oakley's more common portraits were produced by larger studios like Sarony. Thus, an Oakley cabinet card from a distinguished but less widespread photographer like Stacy enhances its scarcity and collectible value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2548\" data-end=\"3134\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2548\" data-end=\"2586\"\u003eRarity of Cabinet Cards Like This:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2586\" data-end=\"2589\"\u003e\nOriginal cabinet cards featuring Annie Oakley are exceedingly rare, especially those issued by lesser-known studios outside of New York City proper. Most extant Oakley images come from larger, heavily circulated editions. A regional studio cabinet card like this, capturing Oakley at the height of her fame and in full regalia, offers collectors a scarce and significant piece of Wild West and American entertainment history. Such items are coveted for their direct connection to Oakley's persona and the photographic artistry of the Gilded Age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3136\" data-end=\"3524\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3136\" data-end=\"3155\"\u003eClosing Appeal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3155\" data-end=\"3158\"\u003e\nThis outstanding cabinet card represents a rare convergence of American photographic craftsmanship and Wild West legend.
