Description

James G. Blaine: Magnificent Image on Glass. 53mm mounted to a 2½" x 5" ribbon. Essentially one of the last ambrotypes, the photo emulsion was actually applied in reverse on the underside of the glass. While it made for a beautiful effect, these items were vulnerable to damage, as the emulsion scratched or flaked off easily. Quite rare to find with the original ribbon backing. There are a couple of minor spots on the image with some soiling to the ribbon, otherwise a superb example.
