Tintype of Simon Cameron Lincoln's Secretary of War

c. 1864, Tintype Photograph of Simon Cameron (Lincoln's Secretary of War), Choice About Mint.
This is an original, 1.75" x 1.5" Tintype housed in an ornate, gilt-brass frame. Excellent appearance, but crazing and lifting of emulsion in spots, visible only on magnification. By Abbott & Co. of New York, whose paper label is affixed to the back. A great-looking image.
