Tintype of a man and woman sitting. The man is wearing a suit and bow tie and the woman is wearing a light dress (possibly a wedding dress). Both have their hands clasped in their lap. The tintype is in a latched box with a red decorative fabric on the opposite cover of the image. The cover is a dark brown color with a vase with flowers in the center and floral flourishes around it to the corners. The box came in an envelope with "Andrew Miles and Fannil Miles, #45" written on it. This is most likely O.E. Heller's organization system.
The box is worn along the raised design and especially along the bottom edge. The binding is worn and torn and there is a piece of fabric handing from it. The tintype has been cracked and the bottom left corner is missing. It is also dirty and has many black spots.Photograph Details
