    Here is a
    SUPERB ANTIQUE CIVIL WAR ERA BLUE & GOLD SMALL GEM-SIZE TINTYPE PHOTO ALBUM COMPLETELY FULL WITH 96 GEM TINTYPES.
    Coming fresh out of an old Porter, Maine homestead in untouched condition. This is the nicest and cleanest Gem tintype album that I've ever come across in my 30 years in this business. It's like it was in a time-capsule. Very clean and bright exterior with nice-working brass clasp and only light edge wear. Interior album pages are all in good undamaged condition. Nice gem tintypes on pages including a charming
    dog on a chair
    (see close-up photo). Lots of lovely young women and other women and gentleman of varying ages. My photos don't show every page in album, but the other pages have similar portraits on them. Pages and binding still tight together. Absolutely wonderful antique Gem Album. I do not know anything specific about the family this album is coming from myself.
    Will pack with care for buyer. INSURANCE INCLUDED in the shipping total.
