<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Batman_2000, post: 285054, member: 481&quot;]Picked this up as part of a job lot... CDV of British MP and philosopher/liberalist John Stuart Mill. Taken c1865.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question - there is damage in the form of &#039;spots&#039; and I&#039;m wondering if these have been acquired over time, or were there originally? It makes me wonder because other such CDV&#039;s on the internet show similar (but not exactly the same) dark flecks:</p><p><a href="http://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portraitLarge/mw114403/John-Stuart-Mill?LinkID=mp03080&amp;role=sit&amp;rNo=2" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portraitLarge/mw114403/John-Stuart-Mill?LinkID=mp03080&amp;role=sit&amp;rNo=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portraitLarge/mw114403/John-Stuart-Mill?LinkID=mp03080&amp;role=sit&amp;rNo=2</a></p><p><a href="https://historical.ha.com/itm/autographs/john-stuart-mill-clipped-signature-and-carte-de-visite-photo/a/6054-34590.s#" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://historical.ha.com/itm/autographs/john-stuart-mill-clipped-signature-and-carte-de-visite-photo/a/6054-34590.s#" rel="nofollow">https://historical.ha.com/itm/autographs/john-stuart-mill-clipped-signature-and-carte-de-visite-photo/a/6054-34590.s#</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Also, if it&#039;s ok to ask, I&#039;m wondering what would be the best way to sell it? I can see one or two of these CDVs on eBay but I&#039;m not sure if they sell well on there? Or maybe the price is just too high!</p><p><br /></p><p>Many thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]91598[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91599[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]91600[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
