Lot of three original, sixth-plate tinted daguerreotypes:
1. Daguerreotype of a man, housed in a Moroccan leather flip top case with double
clasps at the bottom. Case is 3 7/8" x 3 3/8" when closed.
Daguerreotype is unsealed behind glass and mat. Overall in pretty good antique
condition.. there are some light scratches on and around the shoulder on the
left, some small mat abrasions within the tarnish ring, and tarnish spots in
the background, as seen. The case is in overall very nice condition as far
as leather wear is concerned, and it's complete with no repairs.. the top
two corners are slightly separating.
2. Daguerreotype of a woman seated at a small table, she's wearing jet bracelets
and is holding a pink flower. Housed in leather case that is 3 3/4" x 3 1/4"
when closed. Case is in excellent condition with double clasps.
Daguerreotype has its original seals intact. Has some light tarnish, but is
otherwise in excellent undamaged condition.
3. Daguerreotype of a beautiful woman with a slight smile on her face seated at
a small table.. she appears to be holding a fan. Housed in a pebbled leather
case with the studio imprinted in gold on the front cover. Case is in very nice
antique condition overall with light wear, and the covers are separated. Case is
3 7/8" x 3 1/2" closed.
Daguerreotype is in very good+ antique condition with a tarnish ring and a spot
or two of scattered tarnish, but no scratch or ding type damage seen. It is no
longer sealed and should be handled with care, but I will pack it so that there
is no movement.
