A collection of eleven photographs -- seven CDVs and four cabinet cards -- bearing the images of notable figures in American history during the early nineteenth century, produced c. 1860s. Most of these individuals are statesmen and lawyers notable for their political influence leading up to and during the Civil War, such as Henry Clay, Benjamin Butler, Horace Greeley, and Edwin Stanton. Significant non-politicians such as William H. Vanderbilt and John J. Audubon are also included. Some images are photos of engraved portraits, while others are real photographs of the subject. No photographer is listed, but the photos likely originate from New York, as the archive they belonged to focuses on New York politicians. [
