1840s Daguerreotype - Woman with Gold Jewelry & Object Book or Sign (?) on Table CDV overall very good antique conditionOriginal 1 6 daguerreotype, mid 1840s, woman wearing a pearl necklace, brooch, gold hair clip, and ring with painted gold highlights. She's seated in front of a curtain backdrop, at small table with an object on it.. looks like it's probably a book, but it's odd because if so it's standing on end. Under magnification it looks like there is *possibly* writing, so maybe it's one of those dated signs? Just a guess however, when I look at the book sign
