Lot Description
[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. 6 outdoor ambrotypes and tintypes featuring houses and other buildings.

A pair of loose quarter plate tintypes featuring a large house with several adult subjects posed on the porch. (Both images with spotting and surface wear; unsealed, both with mats and preservers, one with cover glass and one without.) The tintypes appear to be mirror images of one another, one likely a copy of the other. -- Quarter plate ambrotype featuring a house with women and children posed on the porch. (Image rather faded, with softening to detail and minor spotting; unsealed.) Housed in a half leatherette case (significant wear, separation to corners). -- And 3 other ambrotypes including 2 quarter plate examples and one sixth plate example. -- Together, 6 outdoor images of buildings.
19th-20th Century Historic Photography Collection of Dr. Joseph T. Pollock
