- @tyler_konarik If it's early 1900s, it's certainly not daguerreotypes. They're more 1850s. Send me an example and I'll identify it. in reply to tyler_konarik #

- @EastMarple1 what a shame the postage on these identifiable (and rather fine) 1920s wedding photos is so extortionate! http://t.co/byZfGs42 #
