TWO NEW INVENTIONS
IN THE DAGUERREOTYPE ART.
"PECK'S PATENT PLATE HOLDER," and the "Bent Edge Daguerreotype Plate," used in connection with it. An instrument is sold for seventy-five cents, with which every operator can bend his own plates. The holder is a desideratum, and only requires to be used to be appreciated. It is so constructed that it will hold the plate through all the stages of cleaning, buffing, polishing, coating, taking the picture in the camera, and mercurializing without any change. During the whole process, the plate need not be touched with the fingers, and does away with the use of wax, &c., &c.
The prices for the holders are mediums, $1 00—quarters, $1 50—Halves, $2 00—whole size, $2 50.
The "Magic Back Ground." The discovery of this is due Mr. C. J. Anthony, of Pittsburgh, Pa. By this process the most beautiful effects can be produced, and the pictures are set forth in bold relief on back grounds of various shapes and tints. Pictures taken with the "Magic Back Ground," will be emphatically the "Pictures for the Million." The Patent is applied for, and the right ratified upon the receipt of the Patent, for the sum of Twenty-Five Dollars.
