Eerie post-mortem in bedroom, daguerreotype

Sign In to see what this sold for

At left is the bedpost and what seems to be the bedroom window. The hollow-eyed person with mouth open shows his teeth, reminiscent of a character in some early cinematic horror film such as "Nosferatu."

The horizontal 1/6 plate is still sealed to the scalloped mat with original paper seals. In a full case with original spine intact. [4-]
