1/6 daguerreotype, appears to be a woman and her adult daughter, each holding a small item, one possibly a closed velvet photo case.. or even some kind of medal? The sad expression s on their faces and the absence of the husband/father make me think this was probably some kind of memorial portrait. Original tinting. The dag appears to be in excellent antique condition and original seals appear to be in place. Looks like any spots you see are on the underside of the glass, not scratches or abrasions. Case is complete with separated covers. 7929 Show more
