Old large format cameras

The price asked is the most amazing part. Such

carte-de-visite (CDV) pictures are relatively

common and I imagine Peiser studios gave these

out by the dozen as advertising material.

 

Interesting though. It looks as if the large

camera was fitted with a dummy lens while its real

lens was used to take the picture.

 

I don't think I'd trust that tripod to take the strain of

being leaned on either!
