About MeThree copies of a postcard depicting "Portrait of James McBey" by Gerald Brockhurst, which was originally owned by American Banker and art collector, Albert Wiggin. In 1941 Wiggin donated his collection of several thousand art works, including this portrait of James McBey, to the Boston Public Library.

The postcard was printed by The Meriden Gravure Company, Meriden, Connecticut.

This object is part of an archive that belonged to Marguerite McBey. As a result of her generosity, Aberdeen Art Gallery holds the largest archive of James McBey's work, including prints, drawings, sketchbooks, oil paintings and memorabilia such as this postcard.
