Hey guys! I'm here to share with you the best tintypes I got out of my afternoon photographing the Wallace Dickinson House. I asked Stepheni to share some of the history of house and here is what she answered :
"The house was built in 1888.
The neighborhood at that time was called "The Terrace". The Terrace at N
Avenue and 24th Street was considered a fashionable place to live.
It is on the local Historical Registry.
Officially named the Wallace Dickinson house
Besides a family home, the house has been a boarding house for the wives and
children of service members during WWII and a boys preparatory school in the
50s-60s. We are 3rd family to own the house."
The plates below (except the first, it's a 5x7) are the size of 3 1/2 by 5 in. Exposure time of the day was 1-2 seconds.
