The Howell family photograph album (13cm x 10cm) contains 34 photographs of the relatives of Clarissa Cutler Howell, who lived in Waltz Township, Indiana, in the mid- to late 19th century. Included are 26 tintypes, seven cartes-de-visite, and one silver gelatin print, which shows Clarissa Cutler Howell at an advanced age. A lithograph entitled "Love at the Gate" is tucked into a sleeve behind this print. With the exception of the later print, the photographs are formal studio portraits of Clarissa Cutler Howell and her parents, siblings, children, and other family members. The album's blue leather cover has a geometric relief design.
