Tintype (ferrotype) of two woman in period beachwear, posing by a studio ocean circa 1900.   ( Inventory# fd18 )

Nice larger format tintype of a hokey subject. These female friends are dressed for the beach which was doubtless somewhere nearby. A tiny ship is visible on the painted backdrop, perhaps lured to its destruction on the rocky crags.
