Daguerreotype Painting of a Woman by MP SIMONS Philadelphia Photographer 1840s lasso Daguerreotype is no longer sealed1 6 plate daguerreotype of a painting of a woman. The dag is still sealed and is housed in a leather case with M. P. Simons Philadelphia name imprinted on the back cover. Dag appears to be in very good condition, with a heavy tarnish ring. The horizontal lines ARE NOT scratches, just tarnish lines. It's possible that a restorer could remove the tarnish ring. Case is complete and intact and in very good antique condition. 8352
