Description: 2 Nice Original Antique Photos in Excellent c.1850-1860 Gutta Percha Case, Civil War Period DESCRIPTION: 2 nice early antique photographs taken c1870-80. Set in a nice 1/9 plate DOUBLE complete gutta percha, hard rubber case. Made to hold 2 separate images, made with 2 brass mats and no velvet pads. Nice geometric design in the case as shown and overall excellent condition. The 2 images are paper and were taken c.1870-80, then put in the earlier (Civil War) gutta percha case. Probably this was done by a later generation.....might as well update an existing early case and make use of it!!! Nice example. Later images are also very nice, especially the one wearing a hat and work shirt. Please see my auction list for other early framed antique photos, both ambrotypes and daguerreotypes, some identified and many in gorgeous fancy frames!! PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS!!!
