Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Circa 1860, both presented in a hinged case secured with a brass hasp, the lid decorated with mother-of-pearl inlays. One photograph is behind a mat stamped "BACON'S 208 BOWERY," this referring to the studio of Rufus Bacon, New York City.

The Estate of Mary Gorham Bynum of Pinehurst, NC

The back board is detached from the case; some blistering to the emulsion of the man's portrait that does not affect the face.
