Lot of (2) Civil War-era daguerreotype photos. First, colorized Union Soldier, in ornate tin-type frame with glass. Photo is striking. Measures 3.5" x 4.25". Second, very ornate fold-open hinged case, one half velvet lined, photo opposite with tin-type engraved surround. Surround has Union shields and flags at corners. Top of oval surround reads"UNION" Vividly clear photo of female subject under glass, deep black & white tones. Case clasps closed securely. Carved case measures 3 1/2" x 3 5/8". Case has small piece missing on fold-out lower left leaf, approx. 1/2" long. This appears to be the only damage. Both pieces in near-excellent condition, spectacular history! [
