BEAUTIFUL COLLECTION OF 8 ANTIQUE VICTORIAN GIRLS\' PHOTOGRAPHS INCLUDING A TINTYPE!
A wonderful collection of 8 original antique photographs featuring young girls and teenage girls, beautifully dressed in the fashions of the Victorian era and early 20th century.
This especially charming assortment includes a tintype, cabinet cards, CDV-style photography, and real photo postcards (RPPCs), offering a delightful glimpse into childhood, period clothing, hairstyles, and photographic traditions of long ago.
OF SPECIAL INTEREST:
A fabulous full-length portrait of a young girl wearing an elaborate white dress with beautifully detailed sleeves, a large floral-trimmed hat, and holding a parasol. She stands beside an extraordinary ornate wicker chair. Photographed by Nicklas & Co. of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
A lovely portrait of a young girl wearing an intricately patterned dress with a large sash, photographed by Gleim of Ottawa, Illinois, on an attractive scalloped-edge mount.

An antique tintype photograph featuring a little girl dressed in an elaborate dark winter coat with contrasting light-colored fur trim and a matching bonnet. The tintype is housed in a beautiful original-style black and gold decorative paper mount, with the photograph removable from the mount.
A wonderful real photo postcard of a young girl wearing a white outfit, fashionable hat, and long scarf, posed beside a wooden chair.
Additional lovely photographs of young girls wearing beautiful period dresses, elaborate bonnets, oversized bows, and carefully arranged accessories.
Several photographs retain their original photographer\'s imprints, decorative mounts, and handwritten inscriptions on the reverse, adding further historical interest.
The tintype is particularly appealing, with its charming subject, wonderful period winter clothing, and attractive decorative mount. The assortment of photographic formats makes this a desirable collection for anyone interested in the history of early photography.
The beautiful clothing is another highlight of this group, from delicate lace and ruffled dresses to elaborate hats, parasols, winter coats, and wonderful period footwear.
These are original antique photographs, not modern antique condition overall, with normal evidence of age and handling. Some photographs exhibit light toning, scattered foxing, paper discoloration, minor surface marks, and occasional corner and edge wear, all consistent with their considerable age.
The tintype retains its decorative black and gold paper frame, normal wear from age and handling. Several of the photographs retain especially lovely image clarity and wonderful detail.
Please examine all photographs carefully, including the backs, as the pictures are the best description of their individual condition.
