For your consideration is this 1860's Ambrotype and daguerreotype photograph collection. There are six photographs in this collection. Five of the photographs are Ambrotype photographs, four of which are framed in tin pressed bordering and one is shown without the frame. The daguerreotype photograph is of Uncle John Crowe, who died soon after the Civil War and owned land in Montana. The condition of these photographs is good, with one of the Ambrotype photographs shown without the tin border frame and wear consistent with age; otherwise, these photographs are in good overall condition. The measurements of these photographs are 8 1/2" x 6 1/2" and 2 1/2" x 2".
