This photo came with the Johanna Madsen Hafen Collection. It is tintype in an embossed copper fram and enclosed in a wooden case. When I scanned it the first time, the photo was to dark due to the copper reflection. So, I carefully removed it from the case and found a lock of hair inside. What a treasure. However, it might take a DNA test to figure out who this man might be. Anyone have the answer? Also the date 1876 was written on the inside along with the initials J.C.
