This is a 1/6 plate tintype in a full case separated at the binding. These two guys have something to be proud of. They display a stove, a box of Mothers Oats and a brown bag tied with string between them. The man on the right is smoking a cigar and wears a special pin on his lapel. The other man is smoking too. You can see his watch fobe and his suspenders. Did they invent Mothers Oats or the Stove?
