It was probably taken in the late 19th century, (around 1880), judging by the clothing and table background. The little one, of about 3 or 4, is dressed up in a soldier jacket and hat. He has a toy sword in his striped belt and is holding a toy rifle. There even appears to be a knapsack on his back; and check out the spats.

The tin is quarter plate size measuring 4 5/8" by 3 1/2". It would look fabulous cased or framed in a regular picture frame. It is in nice condition with some background fading and light scratching. There is very slight bending.

Please Note: Advanced approval is required on any international purchases before placing of orders.

Thanks for looking.
