Dr. Elizabeth Cushier

Item

Title
Dr. Elizabeth Cushier
Description
Black and white illustrated portrait, allegedly of Dr. Elizabeth Cushier.
Date
Unknown (c.1870-1931)
Provenance
Historian Lillian Faderman states that the portrait was sourced from the Woman's Journal, a periodical published by Dr. Emily Blackwell's brother and sister-in-law between 1870-1931. However, Faderman does not cite a specific issue of the journal, and we have not been able to find the original image in digitized issues of the periodical.
