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.

A young fellow of the 19th century...

Tintype of a little 19th century gent, courtesy of Daguerreian Dandy.


Yes...a wee gent we have here. Marvel at that top curl and direct stare. 1/6 plate tintype, American.
