Tintype Photo Woman Unusual Hat & Dress Crocheting or Sewing Seamstress Rare art one uncased with a noteOriginal late 1860s, c. 1870 tintype photo showing a woman casually seated in a chair, wearing a strange cap and unusual dress. Under magnification it appears she's holding a crochet needle.. not positive. Pretty unusual images, all things considered. Approximately 3. 5" x 2. 75". Very good antique condition overall with a light horizontal BEND through the center.
