I'm culling out my collection to re-capitalize my small business and before I part with some of this stuff I'd like to get opinions on it. I've listed this ruby ambrotype of a young man with an interesting cap -- a sort of stiffer variation on a mechanic's wheel cap and in his hand he's got this stick with almost a spool-shaped knob on the end. Is he a band member and is this a drumstick of some kind? Or, is a conductor's wand? Something in me says he's a "conductor" -- but of WHAT? A band? or a train or an omnibus? :confused_

Opinions eagerly sought. It's a nice "occupational" ambro but before I say good bye to it and ship it off, would love to have a better idea of what "occupation".
