Glass Negative #2
These two glass negatives were found in a junk shop in Huntsville, AL. They were tucked away in a corner, underneath a few old canvas paintings. I happened upon them by pure chance, shuffling through the odds and ends of the shop. They look to me like they are from the late 1800s or right at the turn of the century, judging from the dress and from the film process used that was popular at the time (ambrotypes, I think?). I scanned the plates in with my scanner and then reversed them in Ps. The detail of the images is spectacular and the plates (4x5s) haven't degraded very much over the years.
Any help to identify and pinpoint the time period would be greatly appreciated!
