A CDV-sized tintype features an African American man seated in a studio setting, with the American flag prominently displayed in the background, ca. late 19th century. The man is dressed in a suit and cap, exuding dignity and pride, and his pose reflects the significance of the patriotic backdrop. Tintypes with African American subjects, particularly with the inclusion of national symbols like the American flag, are highly collectible and historically significant.
