Description
This is a JEFFERSON DAVIS TINTYPE ca 1861-62, HOUSED IN A PRESERVER UNDER GLASS-EXCELLENT CONDITION. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE ABBOTT TINTYPES, AND ALTHOUGH IT LACKS THE STORE CARD & IMPRINT, IT MOST LIKELY ORIGINATES FROM THE SAME MAKER. ALTHOUGH THE HINGE CONNECTING THE COVER & THE TINTYPE HAS SEPARATED, THE TWO COMPONENTS ARE BOTH INTACT AND IN EXCELLENT ORIGINAL CONDITION. SIZE OF THE DAVIS IMAGE IS A LARGE 1 1/2″ x 1 3/4″ AND THE CONDITION AND IMPRESSION OF THE PHOTO ARE BOTH EXCELLENT. THIS IS A REALLY NICE DAVIS PIECE, AND IS ALSO QUITE SCARCE. Our commitment is to provide you with quality coins and collectibles at the best possible prices. This piece is no exception. Please note, the coin and collectibles markets do fluctuate, and prices occasionally will change. In this rare circumstance, we will contact you first to verify your order.
