Lot 503
[1864 Presidential Campaign] John C. Frémont. This is the same pose found on the most familiar varieties of Frémont's 1864 presidential candidate campaign ferrotypes; therefore, it is possible that this tintype may well have been made for the campaign. It is definitely not common or from the c. 1862 "Abbott" series, as the pose is totally different. Housed in a gilt bordered, 1¾ x 2 in. embossed leather case. A remarkable quality tintype and the finest we have ever offered of General Fremont.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
