Hello. My dad gave me some old tintypes, and I've long wondered what the purpose of the equipment/machinery or whatever it is that he is standing next to.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

If you look at it close...it looks like the back of a chair to me?

Agree! Odd chair, but a chair.

Looks like it is just a chair but an interesting style.

The guy also looks interesting — thanks for not saying it’s Wyatt Earp or Bat Masterson!
