Daguerreotypes date to around 1839-1860s.The case has a beautiful floral design on the front and back. Inside is red colored velvet fabric with a leaf. The photo, on the right, is of a man and woman. They are both seated and look directly at the camera. The note reads that they are brother and sister, named Edward and Susan. Both cases and pictures show signs of wear and age. The case is also missing its hinges. Dimensions: 3 3/4" L X 1/2" D X 4 3/4" H DUE TO STAY AT HOME ORDERS: We have been delayed in responding to questions and have experienced a shipping delay.
