That photo would be dated by the crystal set. I would guess that she is listening to a (verrrry early) broadcast, and if so, it would have to be after 1920, when broadasting first began. She died shortly after 1920, as we know, but we also know that she did very few public appearances because of hre epileptic problem. Thus, her aged appearance would never have mattered. Does that sound right?
