John Cummins as a Bay, Full Portrait. 2" x 3 1/4" carte-de-visite portrait of Johnnie Cummins or John Cummins, shown in full-figure posed in a suit in studio setting, as a young boy; standing next to fringed portrait chair.

These photographs are from a second old album containing tintypes and carte-de-visites of members of the Allyn and Cummins families of Janesville and Madison Lake, Minnesota. The album itself is brown leather with gold-leaf embossing on the cover, the word "album" on the spine; 5 1/4" x 6 1/2" x 2 1/2" with a brass metal hasp. It is identical in size, but has a different cover decoration than the first album. The leather is separating from the spine.
