Default new acquisition - tintypes from machines?

Posted By: hankron

Haven't seen that one before, Scott.

By the turn of the century, the tintype was an out of date process and was rarely if ever used for formal family portraits and stuff. The tintype was typically delegated to booths carnivals, boardwalks, Coney Island and similar touristy places.
