Post Civil War Era ? Two Soldiers in Uniform Paper Frame

Description

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE WORDS, DHINC EBAY WATERMARK ARE NOT ON THE ITEM ITSELF
You are bidding on an old, original tintype photograph of 2 men. It appears that they are soldiers possibly in uniform, but you can see with a loop the belt buckle has an eagle on it so I assume that they are soldiers, and as stated, possibly in uniform.  The tintype is in a paper frame and the frame measures approx. 3 7/8” x 2 ½”.  A fellow ebay member has advised me that this if after the Civil War, the Indian war era, from the 1870s-1880s, based on their hats and tunics. The paper frame has a diagonal crease in the top left quarter, layering and rounding at the corners, spotting on the front of the cover, moderate+ darkening, spotting and/or staining on the back of the paper frame, and the paper on the back is torn from the left edge to about the right edge and then up about 1”.  The photos is nice but has some small spots or small bubbles on the image, some other spotting and cloudiness and other wear on the tintype. It has not been examined outside of the paper frame. The paper frame is lighter than in the last pictures and is closer to the first 2 pictures. US buyer pays $ 3.50 s/h, cardboard reinforced, which includes tracking, and Oklahoma residents MUST pay applicable sales tax. Good Luck!
