Civil War CDV Album~41'st Illinois Infantry Officer

$575 USD Offers ConsideredCivil War CDV Album~41'st Illinois Infantry Officer

Collectibles:Photographic:Militaria:Civil War
This album, like the other album I have in my shop, is completely full of CDV's and tintypes. There are 50 in all. This album belonged to Mariah Noyes of Mattoon, Illinois and is so marked in the back flyleaf. Mariah was the daughter of Ebenezer Noyes who was the founder of Mattoon in Coles County, IL. Many of the photos are identified and some of the surnames are Noyes, Vonce, Withington, Haydin, Bustoe, Balch and Irwin. One of the photos is of Joseph Withington who served in Co. D, 41'st ...
Large Cabinet Card Album with Photos

$85 USD Offers ConsideredLarge Cabinet Card Album with Photos

Collectibles:Photographic:Albums:Cabinet Card
This antique photo album is a bit unusual in that it is very long and narrow measureing 16" long by 7" wide. I believe the front cover is made of celluloid which has yellowed with age. The center design on the cover is embossed. The back and spine of the album are burgundy velvet. Most of the velvet has worn away. The spine is in sound condition. The clasp which would hold the album closed is missing. Inside are a total of 23 cabinet card photographs depicting families, children, young men and ...
Cabinet Card of Young Girl with 'Hair Down to There'!

$29 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet Card of Young Girl with 'Hair Down to There'!

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
This is a wonderful image of a young girl, circa 1890's in an unusual pose. Her long, wavy hair is cascading down the back of the chair. I would venture to say that when she stood up, it would fall to about her knees. The entire piece measures 6" x 4 1/4" and is in very good condition. There are no creases, soiling or other issues, and the image is still very clear and vivid.
Cabinet Card Photo of Young Girl and Baby in Crib

$15 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet Card Photo of Young Girl and Baby in Crib

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Card:Children
This image is of a young girl, I'm guessing about 5 or 6 years old, and her baby brother or sister. The young girl is quite beautiful and looks none too pleased to be having her picture taken. The baby's little foot is peeking out between the bars of the crib and he's grasping the rail with one little hand. The crib is draped in masses of beautiful lace. This image is in very good condition. The image is still quite clear and crisp. There is minimal soiling and the only flaw I find is a slightly ...
Real Photo Post Card Group of Oddfellows I. O.O. F.

$17 USD Offers ConsideredReal Photo Post Card Group of Oddfellows I. O.O. F.

Collectibles:Photographic:Real Photo Post Card
This RPPC shows a group of gentlemen dressed in the regalia of the fraternal organization, the International Order of Odd Fellows. The image is faded but the details can be seen with the use of a magnifying glass. The postcard has not been addressed on the back.
Identical Twin Babies Cabinet Card Photograph

$22 USD Offers ConsideredIdentical Twin Babies Cabinet Card Photograph

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
One rarely finds photographic images from this time period of identical twins, but I recently attended an estate auction where I purchased several albums and loose photographs, several of which were of twins. This cabinet card was taken in Barry, Illinois which is in Pike County. It shows identical twin infants in long print gowns. If you look closely, you'll see the resemblance to the twin gentlemen with the rather large ears who's photo is listed in another listing. The card is in very good ...
Cabinet card Photo~Unhappy Little Tot

$15 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet card Photo~Unhappy Little Tot

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
Im not certain if the little guy in this photo is a boy or girl, but he or she is definitely not pleased about having a photograph taken. The photo was taken in Macon, Illinois. The dress the little one is wearing has a ruffled neck and heaving cording around the yoke, sleeves and hem. From the style of the clothing, I'd say this photo was taken in the late 1870's/early 1880's time period.
Civil War Era Colored Tintype of Young Woman

$29 USD Offers ConsideredCivil War Era Colored Tintype of Young Woman

Collectibles:Photographic:Tintypes
Based on the clothing this young lady is wearing, I would date this tintype to the 1860's. The image is in very good condition with the only issue being that the paper sleeve is a bit soiled. The woman is wearing a jacket which has been colored a light turquoise. The jacket has dropped sleeves and braid work around the front edge. She is wearing mesh, fingerless mitt gloves. Her hands are folded on top of what appears to be a book, possibly a bible. Please visit my shop for more wonderful ...
Cabinet Card Photo of Victorian House and Musicians

$19 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet Card Photo of Victorian House and Musicians

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
This cabinet card photo shows an image of a large victorian home which has beautiful gingerbread trim, a wide porch and upper porch which has 2 chairs on it. In front of the house is a group of people and horses and buggies. What's interesting about this photo is that one gentleman is holding a trumpet and another is holding another type of horn. I believe this photo was taken in southwestern Illinois as it was in a large lot of photos and albums and most of the pictures were from either that ...

$22 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet Card Photo of Little Girl with Photographer Advertisement

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards:Advertising

$19 USD SaleSALE Cool Retro 50's Metal Tulip Candleholder~Final Reduction!

Collectibles:Metalware:Candle:50's
I saw this at an estate sale and just had to snatch it up! I think it's really neat, and very retro 40's/50's. It's made of metal with enameled paint. The bottom four holders are done in different colors....red, green, orange and blue...while the central tulip is done in red and green. The base holders would have held votive candles and the central piece would hold a taper. It stands 8" tall and is 6 1/2" wide across the base. The colors are very vibrant with minimal paint loss. This piece would ...
Cabinet Card Photo of Twin Gentlemen

$18 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet Card Photo of Twin Gentlemen

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
One rarely finds photographic images from this time period of identical twins, but I recently attended an estate auction where I purchased several albums and loose photographs, several of which were of twins. This photograph was taken in Quincy, Illinois and shows identical twin brothers. They look to be in their late 20's or early 30's. Take note of the prominent ears. A couple of twin baby photos that I will be listing have the same ears so may be the children of one of these gentlemen. The ...
Cabinet card photo of Identical Twin Babies on a Bearskin Rug

$22 USD Offers ConsideredCabinet card photo of Identical Twin Babies on a Bearskin Rug

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Cards
Here is another cabinet card photo of identical twins which was taken in Quincy, IL. If you look at the other twin cabinet cards I have in my shop, you'll note the resemblance between the gentlemen and the two sets of twins. The babies definitely have daddy's ears. This card is in very good condition, free of creases or tears and just a bit of fading.

Two Early Tintypes~Adorable Babies

$15 USD Offers ConsideredTwo Early Tintypes~Adorable Babies

Collectibles:Photographic:Tintypes
These 2 tintypes are in excellent condition. The one on the left still has it's paper cover. That image shows a baby, about 6 months, in a wonderfully ornate dress. It looks like the hem and sleeves are embellished with soutache braiding. The other image shows a baby, about the same age I'd say, also dressed in an adorable gown. This little guy looks to be slightly cross-eyed. Please visit my shop for additional antique images.

SALE PENDING Cabinet Card Photo of Boy Dressed in Ornate Outfit

$19 USD Sale PendingSALE PENDING Cabinet Card Photo of Boy Dressed in Ornate Outfit

Collectibles:Photographic:Cabinet Card
I'm not quite sure what sort of outfit this little guy is wearing. the bottom is not quite a kilt, but that's what it resembles without the pleating. It has a military or fraternal organization look to the design. The little boy is quite appealing, but what I also find interesting is the chair in the background. It has the most wonderful tapestry design on the back of the chair showing a rabbit laying amongst flowers and what looks like a beehive in the background. It's a wonderful image!

Just look at this little guy! He's simply adorable with his blonde, curly hair and blushed cheeks. He is wearing some sort of military outfit, striped stockings and little tasseled high button shoes. He is also holding something in his left hand which look like flowers, but I can't tell for certain. The tintype and sleeve measure 4" x 2.5" and are in excellent condition.
