Original early-1860s tintype photo of a woman in a high-backed chair, with her hands placed in her lap.Her eyes are open, but notice she isn\'t looking at the camera. In addition, high-back chairs are oftenused in PM photography, to help support the person\'s head.
I think it very well could be a PM, but Iam just not 100% on it. What do you think?
This is a 1/9 image in its original case. The case is 3\" x 2.5\" when closed and is in pretty good conditionwith a taped spine. The tintype appears to be in excellent condition.
Shipping includes tracking and insurance, worldwide.
