The Daguerreian Dandy

The proprietor of this modest blog wishes to welcome you to the little 19th century soiree that goes on 'round these parts. You’re likely to be besieged with daguerreotype dandies, hair-raising Gothic Revival furniture, humourous crinoline capers, fair mid-century maidens, saucy postcards, peculiar inventions, melodramatic and tawdry news publication excerpts, a nice helping of American 19th century architecture, mugshots aplenty and artefacts straight out of old Uncle Silas’ curio cabinet.

Victorian era stokers.

I was trying to think up a useless sailor or nautical-themed pun, but nothing came to mind. I'm sure it will schooner or later, though.
