    Early tintype of interesting me with a SKULL displayed on a table.

    This is a post Civil War loose tintype.

    I don't know the circumstances of the photograph-- perhaps medical students or just young men wanting to have an interesting photograph.

      Wouldn't a photo defeat the purpose of a secret society? Was the photographer silenced? ;)
