<p>[QUOTE="*crs*, post: 214224, member: 196"]Hoping someone can tell exactly what I have here. Measures 3" x 2 1/2". It appears to be a tintype or something like that inside of some kind of frame. The picture (a baby in a high chair?) is very dark and at an angle it looks a lot like the old negatives. Is there a name for this? Also is there a name for this type of frame. I can't figure out how the picture was put in unless the tin? border comes out so you can remove the glass. <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/937316726_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/937316986_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/937317045_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
