Lot of 6. Two tintypes, one ruby ambrotype, one relievo ambrotype and two other ambros. One of the tintypes and two of the ambros are Zouaves/chasseurs, and all have some tinting, from simple gilt piping to a fully colored light blue sack coat and reddish "fez"-type hat. The Zouave tintype is in a book-form case with mother-of-pearl inlays on the front. Another ambrotype has a "2" pinned to the pillow. It appears to be the same 2 as is on his hat, and he holds his rifle. The second tintype has a young man leaning on his rifle. Condition: Cases are a bit rough, and one ruby ambro has some "haloing."
