tintype example of an African-American guitar player in the mid/late 1800s
Toronto. Image collectors seem like a gregarious bunch, and no wonder. Many antique stores, junk shops, flea markets, fairs, auction houses, etc. seem to carry old photos which may suit their collection.
Greg French down New England way is a case in point. While his offerings are mainly American in one way or another, Greg does offer interesting photos. His business name says it loudly: “Greg French Early Photography – specializing in 19th century photographs”.
An example of his current wares is this slightly scuffed tintype of a black guitar player shown at the upper left of this post. Check out all Greg’s current offerings here. Who knows, you may find just the right photo to add to your collection.
Also, be sure visit our 2026 events. Just announced is our next auction on May 3rd, and spring fair on May 24th. As the dates approach, we will pin a poster and details to this web site.
