Description

Tintype of a young woman sitting with her left arm on a table holding what could be a ruler in her hand. Her other hand is gloved and in her lap. She is wearing a dark dress with a light bow around her neck and a hat with flowers and ribbon. The tintype is glued to a pink piece of paper with a red lined border with flourishes in the corners. It has a purple construction paper back. It was in an envelope that reads "Lydia Miles, Married Sam Johnson, pictures of her, #70". This is most likely O.E. Heller's organization system.
