Here we have a rare and unusual tintype of a Ghost Mother holder her unclothed baby while he/she is giving a priceless grin . Who said the old-timers didn't know how to stray from the norm? Such a bizarre and creepy image. The kid saved the best for the camera.
The rare antique photograph comes out of a Chicago estate containing some very rare and unusual photography. My guess is the rare tintype came out of the 1880s.
The unusual tintype photograph measures about 3 1/2" tall, and just over 2 1/2" wide. There is some wear throughout the tintype, and the edges are a bit jagged (see pic). However, the sharpness of the image really pops and breaks through all of it. Please see all pics as they are part of the description.
I ship FedEx to street addresses in the continental USA only (no PO boxes). The rare tintype will be shipping housed in a hard sleeve. Free shipping on the unusual 19th century photograph.
This image is so good it's scary.
