<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spartcom5, post: 2158168, member: 5213&quot;]Even though the inscription itself didn&#039;t get wet it is just unreadable. I utilized every tool I had at my disposal to decipher the first names and it is just too far gone. They didn&#039;t really pencil hard enough and there aren&#039;t any imprints to trace. Bummer but oh well, I obviously still plan on restoring the image as soon as I can get some glass, replace the case. I will also keep the old case for the inscription. Glad I could extract a date from it. I also reached out to a daguerreotype restorer to inquire about getting the old case fixed but it probably is not possible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
