[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. 13 cased images featuring hand tinting.

Quarter plate ambrotype portrait of a father and daughter posed seated together, the father's arm around his daughter's shoulder, the daughter's hand on her father's leg. The out-of-focus curtain in the back of the room, the table cloth, the book on the table next to the father, and the flowers held by the girl all feature red and pink hand-tinting. (Image slightly dark, very few imperfections; unsealed.) Housed in a leatherette case (surface wear and loss throughout). -- Sixth plate portrait of a young woman seated sideways on a chair, wearing a floral printed dress with pink neck tie, and holding what appears to be a small bundle of flowers in one hand. (Tarnishing to edges and a few other interior areas, occasional spots; resealed.) Housed in a pressed paper case (surface wear). -- Remarkably crisp image of a woman seated next to a table, the cloth over which is tinted blue. (Minor spots, else very clear; reglazed and resealed 2021.) Housed in a fully separated leatherette case (split at spine, surface wear, wear to satin pad). -- Lovely sixth plate portrait of a young couple, the man wearing a floral printed vest, the woman wearing an off-the-shoulder dress and a multi-stranded necklace tinted red. (Tarnishing to edges, some spotting, rather clear.) Housed in a fully separated leatherette case (one closure hook missing, split at spine, significant wear throughout). -- And 9 others, including one sixth plate ambrotype and 8 sixth plate daguerreotypes. Conditions and housings vary. -- Together, 13 cased images featuring hand tinting.
