Tintype Displaying Buffalo Bill Poster Circa 1890s (Photo from Tintype Included)

About the Item

This is a Buffalo Bill item that would have appeal for collectors of both western and Buffalo Bill meomorabelia. It is a tintype, circa 1890s (the Buffalo Bill shows started in 1883). It depicts two young men, dressed in their finest clothes, sitting in a horse drawn buggy perceptually on their way to a Buffalo Bill Wild West Show. There is a poster on the wall of the barn (very rare and I have never seen on a tintype). The close up image says: "Buffalo Bill Wild West Lewiston Saturday June 1st Excursion Rates Rough Riders" Tintype measures 3 1/2" x 2 3/8". It is in good original condition; some pitting and scratching to the surface. Included is a beautiful 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" sepia tone photograph that I had "photo lab made" from the tintype. (see image). Professionally framed in attractive solid walnut (11" x 14" with frame). The first three images are the actual tintype; the next three images are the photograph from the tintype in frame. Note: Glare in the lower left is a reflection and not on the tintype.
