Tinted tintype
You really have to click on this to enlarge it to see the details. It's very dark and I had to lighten it so everything would be visible. The pink tinting on her plaid dress is wonderful! It's very lucky that the horizontal damage is where it is and not a little higher and covering her eyes. While trying to date it, I found a tintype in a book that has the exact same sleeve and that photos is dated 1874.
