RARE 1/6 PLATE TINTYPE- SMILING GIRL WITH CHINA DOLL IN ORNATE DOLL CARRIAGE. Rarely do you ever find a large five by seven inch tintype of a child holding a very rare doll like this young girl. I believe the doll is either a sought after French, BRU or Jumeau. The girl’s face matches her doll in many ways, wouldn’t you agree? I love the large bow in her hair and how they wore nearly matching. Costumes on this fine day. Good luck to my fellow 19th Century photo collectors as well as any antique doll collectors landing this large and rare. Please be sure to check out my other listings. CONDITION : Please view my detailed photos for the actual condition of the image and as part of my description. The tintype contains excellent contrast, tonal range and sharpness. The image contains very minor surface wear consistent with age. Amazing details seen on both subjects makes this baby a must have for your collection.
