Tintypes and ferrotypes

Tintypes and ferrotypes that may include stock photography as well as family and theater images. Images of note include a Highland Park firefighter, an African-American, portraits and staged images.

A number of these photographs indicate Orson B Brand as photographer and appear to have been taken chiefly in the same studio with the same props. There are numerous images that appear to be self portraits by Brand.
