Tintypes & Seashells

Since we went to that museum auction and got that fabulous antique folk art piece made of tintypes and seashells, I’ve been looking for more…

I found this antique frame of nine photos decorated in seashells…

And this antique folk art or tramp art “Memory Bottle” has seashells mixed in with all the other buttons and bobs.
