Dear all, I have sent this message to the other alt. list so I hope it
does not impinge upon you in any way to see it repeated but I would
appreciate any info.
I shall also check the Deaguerre Society site on the net
Folks:
I have recently been asked to work on a daguerretype taken in Denmark of
a Lutheran or Presbyterian minister who died in 1839.
Wow, an 1839 daguerrotype.
It is still in the original case and has been in the family since first
taken.
It is deteriorating around the edges.
They wish me to photograph it and work on it digitally.
My question is to ask all of you re any special care needed to be
regarded and if you have any specific techniques for photographing it.
Thanks
Jack Fulton
