Lot Description

[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. Unusual sixth plate tintype featuring two portraits of the same gentleman. 

Sixth plate tintype featuring two vignetted oval bust portraits of a an older gentleman, appearing to be from the same exposure. (Light surface punctures from mat, some dust/residue between plate and glass; unsealed.) Housed in a leatherette case (repair to spine). 

The second portrait appears to be identical to the first, though the subject appears rotated ever so slightly clockwise.

Early Photography Collection of Jules Martino, Silverton, Oregon
