Description: RARE, PERFECT Original Antique 6th Plate Daguerreotype Photo OF YOUNG CHILD, 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 quite clear. This dag has great mid-1800's New England subject matter. Very young child, about 2 years old. Original period clothes. Set in a nice period 1/6 plate brass mat, and in a full, complete leather case with fancy surface geometric design. Case is in excellent condition, LOOKS AS NICE AS THE DAY IT WAS MADE!!! Leather hinge is still in PERFECT condition. NICE THAT IT IS STILL IN THE SAME CASE THAT IT HAS BEEN IN FOR 170+ YEARS!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE NICEST CONDITION ONES I HAVE EVER SEEN. 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!!!
