Comments:
After a week of mostly snapshots, I figured I’d better post something older, so I pulled out what I call my Wisconsin Album, which contains all CDVs and tintypes. This guy sure looks intense, and it’s almost funny to see him glaring out from that frilly border. I’m not sure, but it’s possible he’s the same guy pictured here.

His mustache matches his hair…..curly on the ends
LOL, indeed it does. Casual yet coordinated. It probably took him all morning to get it just so. 🙂

“How do you plead?”
I’m guessing guilty.
Great cheekbones, nice chin dimple. Would be really nice to see him smiling. Can’t tell if he’s the guy in the casual cigar tintype you linked to, but I hope so. 😉
He does have a touch of the sinister about him, doesn’t he? You’re right, though, all the components of a handsome face are there.
