Nice 1/4 daguerreotype of a little boy and girl, the boy holding a book, the girl having long ringlet curls in her hair. Mat is stamped, McELROY.. unsure of the location, best guess is Massachusetts. I also have a second McElroy available in this shop, if interested.
Inside of the case is the following writing in pencil:
George Edwin Reed Aged 11 years
May Adelaide Reed Aged 9 years
Rensselaer (?) NY
Presented by (?) Susan A. Reed
There mother (?)
Dag is unsealed, in very good antique condition in full case, separated covers.
