Information Request: Tintype

Posted by elizabeth batty on September 27, 2012 at 12:30

I'm seeking information about this tintype I've recently acquired (see photo below). Its approximately 10" by 8". The backing paper (as shown) is American and dated 1896. I'm interested to find out who this lady was and more about this photo.

Any information gratefully received.

Liz
