Original Description:
Thank you for being here. I hope you are having a great day. The daguerreotype itself, removed from the preserver, measures 3.25” x 2.75”. The loose daguerreotype has an obvious tarnished oval, a shadow from the mat. There’s some scratching to the areas outside the oval(apparent rubbing wear from the mat). When removed from the case, you can see someof her lower body and more of the pillow. The far outside edges are badlytarnished.The thick and heavy mat has several ugly spots of... darkenedcorrosion. The preserver is bent up and has evident discoloration. The dag isunder glass. The back of the dag is covered with fingerprints and uglydiscoloration. This is the case that the photo came with, but I have no idea ifit is original or not. The case hinge is split, the two ends are loose fromeach other. The inside of the top portion is empty with no material (woodshowing). The exterior of the case is rough with lots of evident wear.Every time I look at the close-up pics of this image, ittugs at my heart. I’ve seen a lot of postmortem photos over the years, but thisone really gets to me for some reason.I want to point out that there is a small dot of sort on hernose that I believe is part of the image. I don’t know what it is, but itcatches my attention.I ask that you please help me out by closely reviewing theprovided pics to best judge what you are bidding on.I have more old photos from the same estate collectionlisted this week. I do combine on shipping.There are no buy-it-now prices. Everything is going to sell in auction format. I combine on shipping to save you money. If I unintentionally overcharge you on the shipping cost, I will refund the difference. If you have any questions or need any additional details, send me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I only check messages a couple times a day, so it may be a few hours before I am able to respond.
