Jim Linderman blog about surface, wear, form and authenticity in self-taught art, outsider art, antique american folk art, antiques and photography. Dull tool and dim bulb were the only swear words my father ever used. Items from the Jim Linderman collection of vernacular photography, folk art, ephemera and curiosities. (Note: if anyone believes an image contained violates their rights or insults their intelligence, simply point it out and I will remove)
Itty-Bitty Tintype Bowser Photograph of a Dog 1/16 Plate
Tintypes were the far cheaper yet far less attractive child of the daguerreotype and the ambrotype. Still, they brought ownership of a photograph to the masses. Here a loving friend has documented his dog for the ages. GOOD BOY! STAY! Stay...
