This is an interesting old tintype, I was gonna list it as the saddest tintype on earth but that might be a push so I will just call it sad. Measures approximately 2 1/2" X 3 3/4". I would say that it is in good handled condition, I got it out of an album, edge and surface wear are all about, a little bending, pretty standard old tin photo from my experience. First of all it is a tintype of a cased photo, you can clearly see the ornate border down the left side of the photo. In my mind the lack of a Mother and the multiple photos suggest perhaps a breaking up of the family, maybe the Mother has died and the Dad has to move on, leaving the kids with relatives to be raised, possibly never seeing their Father again but for this little image. I don't know, kinda wild but interesting to think about, just invent our own story for them, part of the fun I spose. Sold "As-Is" with no reserve. Buyer pays shipping, we charge actual shipping costs, never a handling charge. WE ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY and we will ship the photo as soon as possible upon receipt of payment, usually the day of or the day after. Thanks!
