Two Men Times Two; for Andrew

These are for Andrew - on Wednesday we were discussing the representation of men in photography and Ann mentioned the interesting history of the portrayal of men together. I found these recently in Pawtucket. These aren't exactly kinky, but they're both fascinating. I should bring in the real thing to class - tintypes are great to pore over.
