I echo what others have said about authenticity concerns. There would be no reason whatsoever to take an 1880's photograph, cut it down, then stick it in a case that would have been obsolete for two decades and was designed to protect more fragile forms of photography.
It would be like buying a brand new iPhone 6 and jamming it in a Walkman case from the 1980's. If things don't make sense, it usually points to someone trying to pass something off as being older than it is.
