It's been my experience that tightly framed, head shot tintypes are fairly rare, though it's possible with the irregular boarders that this image may have been cut out from a larger area. As I've noted in other tintype posts, tintypes are actually negatives that appear positive against a black painted or lacquered iron base. Tintypes are actually called ferrotypes.
