Opening: $650 Hammer Price: $650 SOLD Skylight Gallery 19 November 2004

Sixth plate ambrotype, anonymous American, showing two heavily bearded men in pajama-like costumes with large buttons and elongated cone hats. Housed in full pressed-leather case with some chipped corners.   ( Inventory# ia699 )

The rustic-looking clown gear of these two jokers might indicate that they part of an amateur troupe rather than professionals.

There is one narrow rub running upwards through the "thumbs up" of gent on right into his hat, and a couple smaller marks above.
