<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 123612, member: 33&quot;]Yes, I think so. If you have a strong magnet you could try it on the front of the glass to see if it sticks. That is not completely definitive. If it does not stick it is definitely an ambrotype. If it does stick, though -- it is probably a tintype but there is a slight chance still that it is an ambrotype. The reason for that is that a few ambrotypes have blackened metal behind the image. But most do not have that.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also carefully take it apart to look, but do that only if you have read about how to do it and are comfortable with the idea.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
