See related: photo 2011.005.0070 for card No. 6612 in this series, Stevens' Residence, Castle Point, Hoboken. It has a label with the New York address as 501 Broadway which is known to have been their location from 1862 to at least 1871 and possibly a little later. The 591 Broadway address on the card here is likely from the late 1870s and definitely known from the 1880s. Thus this card was stock issued later than the period when the image was taken and when the series was first offered.
