115320The daguerreotype was the first commercially successful photographic process 1839-1860 in the history of photography. Named after the inventor Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre each daguerreotype is a unique image on a mirror-like silvered surface over a copper plate Daguerreobase website. André Disderi 1819-1889 obtained the rights to photograph the products and artworks at the Exposition as a distinguished daguerreotypist but his lasting fame is that he took out the first patent for the carte de visite in 1854. Ironically this inexpensive mass-produced paper photograph hastened the demise of these beautiful precursors. <p>Apart from a small amount of discolouration visible along the top edge of each daguerreotype this example is in superb condition with the original paper seal around the edges and across the back undisturbed. unknown

95438n.p. n.d. Good. 14 x 7 cm. sepia toned photo onf 18 x 9 cm. green stereo card. Barefoot Man sitting in a chair and dressed in pants coat vest and hat with a stick or leash in one hand and his other hand on the head of large dog lying on the ground beside him. No information on front or back of slightly curved stereo card to it publisher. William Jackson had been enslaved by George W. Jones and hired out by him for $20 a month to Jefferson Davis as a coachman. Jackson forged a pass and escaped North in 1862 without his family when he feared that he was going to be sold South. He was debriefed by Union officers and provided helpful information about Davis and his wife and the activities and plans of the Confederates. Unfortunately the suit-wearing individual on this card is also barefoot which seems quite unlikely to have been true for Mr. Jackson. His features also seem to be considerably at variance with contemporary illustrations picturing Jackson. Nonetheless an unusual stereo card with an unidentified African American male. Probably intended to be be humorous because of the suit and bare feet. unknown

95419n.p. n.d. Near Fine. Photos mounted on curved gray card. 18 x 10 cm. Image has very good detail. Our title is neatly printed on a white strip of paper neatly mounted on the back of the card. We can find the same image on stereo cards backed on red or yellow listed online as held in a few collections but we found no cards with this image offered for sale. All of the cards found online had the titling and other verbage on the front of the card. We know nothing about chronology among these cards. We also don't know if Uncle Jack was in fact then the oldest l;iving inhabitant of St. Augustine. unknown
