PHOTOS: Amazing Tin-Types on the Site

I received 4 more photos from the “Reed Collection”. 3 are tin-types of Pryor women from Gallatin, TN and one is of Buster Simmons, the son of Ann Eliza Pryor and a grandson of Allen L. Pryor. The tin photo were pretty dark with age, but I did my best to bring out the images with Photoshop. One of the photos is of Lucy Pryor, also a daughter of Allen L. Pryor. It helps to tie together the photos of the Pryor women already noted in the collection… they all wore am exceedingly large bead necklace in their photos! It look like the strands of giant Austrailian pearls. Read NY Times Article on Big Pearls
