Tintypes: Family Album - plus Lincoln! An interesting, small [3.5" x 3.5" x 1"] red leatherbound photo album for tiny, 1" x .75" tintypes. Filled with 42 family images, ca. 1860s-80s, including one image of Abraham Lincoln, possibly from his first presidential campaign (for he has no whiskers). He´s not one of the family, and his image is a bit idealized. Pages somewhat soiled and toned, and a few with tears, but generally very good, images range from Good to Fine, mostly VG. Estimate US$ 75-100
