Sixth Plate

OUTSTANDING IN PROFILE. The vignetted gentleman, with “HCEINX” written in pencil on the reverse of the double silvered resealed sixth plate, must have ordered this particular style of likeness taken. Although I placed him in a plain black leather Boston style push button case, I do NOT know if the fellow visited a studio in Beane Towne. His maker is absolutely anonymous. The reason for those obvious mat scrapes was because the plate was cut down slightly on all four sides. The image was loose in the bottom of a scrappy leather case and bounced around somewhat. However, please look beyond those abrasions and behold an outstanding capture of a rather elegant man. The richness of the silver shadow when seen in a positive fashion can?t be overstated!
