Photo / name card - where could this be from? Emma Howard

[Leigh-AnnH]

Hello all

I am intrigued by this name  / photo card. Where would this possibly been from.  This is my great-great grandmother born in 1854.

I'm not sure, I've never seen on before but would guess at it being Edwardian, do you know when she died. This will bring up the board for Jim to have a look at. I wonder if it was for a remembrance service or some kind of tribute.

Thank you - unfortunately I do not have the original but a distant cousin was kind enough to share a number of pictures of Emma Howard with me.

Thank you all for your assistance. It appeared to be an interesting piece and I couldn't resist asking the questions.
