This 1/6 plate tintype features an unhappy young girl. It is difficult to blame her for the sour mood. Her day was going ok until she found herself plunked down upon a faux rock housed in a scary photographer’s studio. Check out her cute striped socks? Note the dark wide belt around her dress. It could be part of her dress, but I think it is actually a safety strap holding the child in place and preventing falls. This tintype photograph measures about 2 1/4″ x 3 1/2″. (SOLD)
