Fat Man on Tintype

Rare tintype image of a mustachioed Fat Man with a cigar sitting in a chair in front of a itinerant or carnival photo studio backdrop which features an idyllic lake. While it is very likely that he is a performer, his clothes appear more workman-like than most performers would wear-- unless perhaps he was on his day off. The photo also has clipped corners and two holes punched into it, evidence of display.
