#11202 Half Plate Daguerreotype, sophisticated Mom and her children, by "NORTH"
Wonderful half plate (4.25" by 5.50") daguerreotype of a sophisticated Mom and her lovely well dressed children. This masterpiece was taken by the well known William C. North of Cleveland Ohio. "Wm. C. North Cleveland, O." is embossed in the mat. Housed in a nice full case with a leather spine repair that I applied.
CONDITION: the plate is excellent with a small amount of perimeter tarnish and just the hint of mat marks in several places. Some buffing lines, several very fine lines in the upper left background and one small 1/8" line traveling out from the mat at the bottom are visible at extreme viewing angles. New glass and resealed with Filmoplast P90.
