Anymore than it already is. It's a great daguerreotype (I think that's what it is). This is one of those images that you have to look at just...
I would never cut up something that's a century old. I'll keep the guys with the cute dog. Thank you. I was actually going to make a post about...
They do. I rarely look at men in photos. A guy had a daguerreotype of a mother/father and two daughters. It's very hard to see the image. A...
That's beautiful. Until you mentioned that my piece could be molded, I did not know that lava brooch cameos were ever molded. That article you...
I've been told that animals in early photos that are not blurry have value, because of the length of time they had to stand still. Does that...
That's bizarre. But, that looks like it was pasted onto the outside. I never knew printing houses used old paper to use with the spine. I guess if...
I sure didn't. I picked up this old 1890 book at a flea market today. [ATTACH] At some point it was part of Wm H Wanamaker Clothing,...
I found this one at ebay. It looks similar, but it's slightly different. Zooming in on this postcard, there's two star like images between the...
Reading those links, the one thing that stands out to me is "The chisel scratches visible on the back attest to its hand manufacture." Even in the...
Here's a CU. I always have a problem posting jpgs here. 1mb is the limit. [ATTACH]
Picked this up today. It was in a modern frame, with new mats, that made me think was a copy. But, it's attached to an old board. So, it's an...
No, she's yellow. The green is my poor photography. I'm now interested in knowing if it's mold or sculpted. I didn't know brooches were molded,...
I was wrong. This is an old clasp. [ATTACH] A better photo of the cameo [ATTACH]
This was advertised as 19th century lava. Who knows, it's just very nice. The clasp is definitely modern or new. [ATTACH]
I'm banging my head trying to find anything on any of these people, and you identified two immediately. THANK YOU! These have probably been in...
Picked up these 3 signed 8 x 10s today. They're very nice. But, it seems like the owner kept them in a box in the garage for years. Still they're...
I bought this and can read most everything except the signer's name. This is a very nice autographed photo. he's not an actor. It's just a regular...
The things I've seen online, I can never unsee. Years ago when I was living in NYC, they had 2 cable access channels that anyone could send in...
I think I have that book. I have quite a few death scene photo books. For some reason (it can't be good), these things don't bother me. True crime...
I am politically inclined, and REALLY OPINIONATED. But, I also realize that "it is what it is", things come and go, and crap has happened...
Separate names with a comma.
