Here is an old tin type photograph with a group of very hatty ladies with very fancy hats. From the shape of the mutton sleeves the picture probably dates to around 1895 plus or minus a few years. They look like they are on stage. Probably the members of some group. It could have been at a photographer’s studio where the equipment would be set up.
Santa Claus is there out of costume but who is the other man? Any suggestions? Keep them clean please.
