Get it? I'm so punny.
As mentioned, I collect old photographs, including daguerreotypes. I got three new ones early November.
I am pretty sure the first one (the oval case) is actually just a wanna be daguerreotypes and is actually a tin type of an older woman put in a case, but it's just so cool I had to get it. The other two are definitely daguerreotypes. The middle one is a young soldier and the third one that was killed in the glare from the flash (I'm sorry!) is a young woman. Both of them are hand colored and have beautiful rosy cheeks. I love them! I'm trying to come up with names for them all.
