(Some tarnishing and minor spotting; no preserver.) Housed in a leatherette case (cracking). -- Sixth plate portrait of an almost menacing-looking young lad holding a book in his lap with both hands. (Significant diagonal imperfection to plate, with minor spotting; resealed.) Housed in a half pressed paper case. -- And 12 others. Conditions and housings vary. -- Together, 14 sixth plate daguerreotypes of male children.
