Original antique 1800s CDV photograph of a family of five siblings. The brother to the far right shows dark hands, as seen in many post-mortem photographs. There is also a stand (look closely, as it is trying to be hidden) holding him up from behind, if you look closely. To the far left, however, the boy also plainly shows feet from a stand behind him, but it is pushed back far enough where it doesn't seem to be holding him in place. To me, there is only potential evidence to show post-mortem photography. The possibility piques my interest, but from my limited evaluation, I cannot say for sure.
Photo measures approximately 6 5/8" x 4 1/2".
Original photo, safely stored in a climate-controlled environment for many years, away from sunlight.

USPS has recently raised their rates and become more stringent on classifications. To ensure safety of delivery of item, and because they now deem most anything padded as Priority instead of First-Class, postage rates have unfortunately gone up.
