I don't know who might be interested in this, but some very old and detailed daguerreotypes have recently been restored. I like looking back in time!

Those are images from Cincinnati, a city much loved by my husband, and he loves stuff like this. I am going to send him this link as a belated birthday present -- he will really, really enjoy this. THANKS!

And a very happy birthday to your hubby! (Did he like them?).[]

He's got a nice print of some ships from "long ago" like that -- but he loved the versions you linked to because the images could be enlarged like that. We live far from Cincinnati now, but it's his "shire" so when I can find Cincinnati items for him it's a nice gift...thanks for this one!

His pride and joy is a framed hand colored fireman's membership certificate -- it's huge and in this very ornate carved wooden frame. It needs some restoring, but it's just beautiful...
