    Description

    Gentleman With
    NECK BEARD
    , The rage of the 1860s. Henry David Thoreau Had One!
    The neck beard was the mullet of its day, in that the wearer was ready for different, even contradictory social occasions. It also kept the chilly New England gusts of wind from entering the collar. Cool.
    Size is 1/6 plate ambrotype in half case
