COLORADO HOMESTEADER TINTYPE. Anonymous, 5 x 7" tintype of a small clapboard home with its multi-generational occupants posed outside. Accompanied by documentation indicating this was the home of Abram Slater who emigrated to Colorado from Iowa in 1859 seeking to strike it rich. After working in Central City, Leadville he moved to Denver around 1860 and took up homesteading, occupying 160 acres in the area around what is today 44th Ave and Youngfield Street, building a home just east today's Mount Olivet Cemetery. This image is of that home. Together with an extensive typewritten genealogy of the family, a sixthplate tintype of Slater's wife Mary Boone (a Daniel descendant), a later silver gelatin photo of the Slaters and a newsclipping about the cabin. Mostly fine. PLEASE NOTE: THIS LOT WILL BE SOLD ON EBAY LIVE AUCTIONS BETWEEN 7:00-7:30pm EASTERN DAYLIGHT TIME ON MAY 10, 2002. REGISTER NOW TO BID LIVE ONLINE THE DAY OF THE SALE! (EST 300-500)
