TINTYPE 1/6th PLATE – LITTLE BOY WITH BIRD.
Delightful image of a really cute little boy with a bird at his feet. We suspect it is a stuffed bird. The boy has a wonderful expression. Great little suit and shoes. Nice subtle tinting of the boy’s cheeks. Size 2.5" x 4" in its original paper holder. This tintype is quite clear. Nice contrast. Condition is very good with no bends and just very minimal scratches.

Tintype of U.S. Sailor - Civil War or shortly after.
We are not experts on Civil War uniforms, but believe this to be a Union sailor from the Civil War. Tinted cheeks. This 1/6 plate tintype is still "sealed" inside its paper frame. The paper frame has been trimmed. Image is in pretty good shape. The surface has a slight haze to it.

Condition is very good with good contrast for a tintype. Very modest bends/creases/scratches. Small area of...

Tintype – C.1870 Buggy, Gun Store, and Grocery.
Wonderful glimpse of a very small town street, post-Civil War. Two men smoking cigars in a buggy in front of a store whose sign reads GUNS POWDER SHOT. REVOLVERS … (and something I can’t quite make out). The store on the right is PEOPLES GROCERY. You can see a man standing under the awning.

Tintype of Young Girl with Her CAT.
Charming 1/6 plate of a young girl in her special checked dress. It was obviously quite a challenge to get the cat in the picture in any kind of focus. Dogs are more common than cats in photos, so this is a nice find. This tintype has a some wear, but is still in overall good condition.
