Default Early Photo on Ebay was Probably Ambrotype

Do you want to know how clear the Dags are? My friend has a framed display of about 50 1850s daguerreotypes on his wall. He had a physician and his wife over for dinner, and the physician looked at the photos and identified many of the peoples' medical conditions.

As I collect more modern, my favorite type of photograph is the cibachrome, which is a modern paper color photograph of high image quality. It's like a normal Kodak color photo, but with 5x better image.
