Hello everyone,
I need to identify the process used for some photographs in order or date them, however my brain is having an off day and I cannot conclude on what I think they are.
- The first image of the flute playing man has got a reflective sheen to it.
- The second one of the children has some white powdery substance on it
(both are behind glass which doesn’t help)
- The last attached image is from a collection of 6 images. Because of the peeling I’m guessing it’s a collodion positive.
Any help/advice would be great.

Thanks for your help Alex!

Your "flute man" is a silver gelatin print, probably a developed out one from about 1910-1915 or so.
Hard to tell on the second print just from an image. I think the last one is a tintype in poor condition.
Here’s a better picture of the flute man!
