Description: Early Original Antique Daguerreotype Photo, Teacher or Professional Person, in Excellent Leather Case, Taken c.1840-1850 DESCRIPTION: Nice early antique daguerreotype image taken during the heyday of popular daguerreotype photography, c1840 - 1850. I apologize for the reflected light/camera in my scans, obviously not part of the actual photo itself, which is particularly clear. This dag has great mid-1800's New England subject matter. Wearing a fancy suit, in nice seated antebellum pose and appearance. Appears to be a professional man, possibly a lawyer store owner or clerk or professor. Nice long hair. Set in a nice 1/9 plate brass mat, and in a full, complete AND FANCY leather case. Case is in excellent condition. NICE THAT IT IS STILL IN THE SAME CASE THAT IT HAS BEEN IN FOR 170+ YEARS!!! And such a clear and great condition original image!!! You won't find much better. Please see my auction list for other early framed antique photos, both ambrotypes and daguerreotypes, some identified and many in gorgeous fancy frames!! PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS!!!
