Original late-1880s tintype of a burlesque clown in its original paper sleeve. Along the top of the sleeve is, "Chicago Comedy Co" and at the bottom is what looks like, "Burlusk" (burlesque?) and what I am assuming is the actor's name, which looks something like Obe / Ole A. Decker?

Tintype is about 3.5" x 2.5", sleeve is 5" x 3.25". Tintype has a few soft bends, otherwise in very good antique condition.
