Daguerreotype. Gutta Percha. Union Angel Case. Lady Rosy Cheeks. Antique

  

Rare antique photograph of a lady with a gutta percha case, taken during the Civil War (1861-65). The photograph is an original period item and is perfect for collectors of militaria.

The lady's attire and the details of the case provide a glimpse into the past make this photograph a valuable addition to any collection. The photograph is in excellent shape and has been well-preserved, considering its age. Great way to connect with history, remember the impact of the Civil War on people's lives on Both SIDES! Antique Lady with pretty Rosy Cheeks appears to be hand tinted perhaps?

Looks as if it's a Gutta Percha case? It is incredible as is! See all photos to see condition, looks simply amazing considering being antique. It's not perfect a few stress areas in the case. Can't recall the family name.
