19th C. Tintype Portrait of Man with Mustache, Pink Cheeks and Perfectly Knotted Tie kurt naef and this one from WWII--

and this one from WWII-- designed for practicing two arm Semaphore and International Morse Code

featuring a worker with horse-drawn cart

And how much more civilized to use these to brush lint (and dog hair

which this bowl perfectly exemplifies in the interplay of solid forms

And on the front

19th C. Tintype Portrait of Man with Mustache, Pink Cheeks and Perfectly Knotted Tie kurt naef and this one from WWII--So many boxes out there of tintype portraits to rummage through, which I do tend to do, and sometimes am just struck by one. I love soulful face on this guy, with deep brown eyes, and his wide, perfectly knotted neck tie, too, looking maybe like a banker, or a merchant of some sort, but not so much like the boss! And with the matte cream of the ground framing the oval portrait just the right thing. 3 3 4 x 2 1 2 and in very good condition, super crisp
