Tintype Displaying a Buffalo Bill Poster, circa 1890s

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 very good original condition; some pitting and scratching to the surface. Included is a beautiful 11" x 14" sepia tone photograph that I had made from the tintype. (see image). Professionally framed in attractive solid walnut. Note: Slight glare in image is a reflection. Note: Please note that I also have another tintype listed "Portrait of a Young Lady" hand colored
