At the risk of opening a whole new can of worms, I also wanted to share this tintype which I believe depicts Doc Adams and Charles S. DeBost. I feel that it also helps to confirm those IDs in the stereoview. Here are side-by-side and half-and-half comparisons to the known photos of each man, as well as comparisons to the stereoview. Again, the coloring is at the whim of the program, and I understand that the images may not appear with the same clarity depending on the device. As always, you be the judge -- no person is more qualified than anyone else to render an opinion as to whether two people look alike. One other very interesting thing: The last picture shows the back of the tintype. It is part of a page from an old periodical of the time called "Anthony's Photographic Bulletin." It was published by Edward Anthony. The very same Edward Anthony who was a Knickerbocker and whom I believe is pictured in the stereoview above.
