James A. Garfield: Bright and Showy Ferrotype Ba

Item Details

Description

James A. Garfield: Bright and Showy Ferrotype Badge. Similar to SJT-1876-24, 28 mm x 33 mm silvered brass shell. This is, visually speaking, a superlative example retaining all of the original silver finish. The portrait is unusually clear (they tend to be dark) with sharp focus and good contrast. Upon close inspection, the ferrotype has some minute emulsion bubbles, swiggles and oxidation on the extreme left and right sides. These are minor in nature and are mentioned for accuracy only. The piece looks great to the naked eye and should elicit oohs-and-ahs when displayed. Original pin attachment on verso.

From the Collection of David and Janice Frent
