Early Photo on Ebay was Probably Ambrotype

Posted By: barrysloate

If it were in better condition I would have been all over it, but it really has some issues and I don't think a conservator could clean it up. Those flaws are deep into the glass.

But as I said, it is still a rare and amazingly early image. I wouldn't be shocked if it was taken in 1863.
