Large 1/4 to 1/2 Plate Ambrotype Man Holding Document NICE Banded Leather Case creepy Direct from the author: ANice banded leather case with an ambrotype of a man holding a document. Case is 5. 25" x 4. 5" when closed, so I guess that's somewhere between 1 4 and 1 2 plate? I don't know. The case is in excellent old condition. The ambrotype is very snug so I didn't want to try to take it out of the case, and I don't know if there is a label or anything else behind there. Boxed shipping.
