DAGUERREOTYPES.


WHIPPLE'S DAGUERREOTYPES KOBY STEAM


After much patient experimenting I have finally succeeded in applying, with more uniform results and certainty, Steam power to do all the mechanical parts of Daguerreotyping, and conse- quently am enabled to furnish my cus- tomers with


BETTER MINIATURES IN LESS TIME THAN FORMERLY, ESPECIALLY


BEAUTIFUL LIKENESSES OF LITTLE CHILDREN, Which I will warrant to make satisfactory to parents, If they will call upon me between the hours of 11 and 2, when the sky is clear.


I HEREBY EXTEND AN INVITATION TO ALL, WHETHER THEY WISH TO OBTAIN LIKENESSES OR NOT,


To call and examine my large collection of Daguerreotype Portraits, and see the operation of the Miniature Steam Engine.


JOHN A. WHIPPLE.

THE ONLY FIRST PREMIUM


Daguerreotype ROOMS,


ARE AT 5} TREMONT ROW, BOSTON.


The attention of all persons interested in procuring


DAGUERREOTYPE LIKENESSES


Of themselves or friends, or copies from Portraits, Miniatures, Paintings, Engravings, or Statuary, is particular- ly invited to our specimens.


For seven years we have taken copies of every description, without reversing them ; also from Life when desired.


We have in attendance two Ladies, and Females can have assistance in arranging their dress and drapery, and con- sult them as to colors most appropriate and harmonious for the Daguerreotype process.


Our arrangements are such that we take miniatures of children and adults instantly, and of DECEASED persons, either at our rooms or at private residences. We take great pains to have Miniatures of deceased persons agreeable and satisfactory, and they are often so natural as to seem, even to Artists, in a quiet sleep.


In style of execution and picturesque effect - in boldness of character and beauty of expression -in variety of size and delicacy of lights and shadows, we shall aim at the highest perfection possible.


Photographs painted in the very best manner if required. Cameras which will not reverse pictures, and every variety of Apparatus, Chemicals, and Materials, furnished and warranted.


Assisted by MRS. & MISS SOUTHWORTH, they will sustain their well-earned reputation. No CHEAP work done Plates PERFECTLY polished. They neither use steam, humbug by false pretences, nor wear laurels won by competitors.
