    Second batch of tintypes that I would love help dating. The young woman can be seen as a teenager on one of the cabinet cards that are posted as well, so that may help with dating those two at least. Thanks for the help!

      I can't get too precise with these examples. Photo #2 of the man in the tintype with the cdv mount is probably the earliest and I would date it to the 1870s. Any photographer information on the back of it?

      The other two, I would think were a little later-- probably 1880s, maybe into the 90s.
