About This Image

Relaxed, artistic poses in both of these. The first daguerreotype is perhaps a handsome Quaker couple. The husband's has casually swept back his hair and has his hand resting on his wife's shoulders lovingly. She holds on to a small prayer book and has a broach at her neck. Both look squarely into the viewer's eyes. In the second daguerreotype the same woman is a nicely posed with her two daughters. The smaller daughter holds a spray of flowers. The mother holds on to both her charges lovingly. The pair come in a split double leatherette case.

Most U.S. domestic Fed Ex ground shipping (Media Mail for books) is free of charge except for larger and heavier items, or unless the buyer wants express shipping (email us your requests for the latter). International shipping and insurance costs will be added to the price and must be paid for by the buyer. Pennsylvania buyers must pay appropriate local sales tax. International clients are responsible for their local customs duties and taxes, which will be charged by Fed Ex, which will contact the client prior to delivery.
