Seed Pearl Necklace and Bracelets

[Susan Higginbotham]

It's not about money, yet you put the dag on eBay, an auction site?

It is possible to get a eBay listing removed for misrepresentation, although eBay seems to be more lax lately. Perhaps it simply realized that the sellers who claim that various photos are of famous people simply aren't fooling anyone. (My current favorite is the "John Brown and Family" daguerreotype offered for sale. No one in the dag bears the slightest resemblance to John Brown and/or his family.)

You seem better at asking questions than answering them, but I'll ask anyway. If this was a photograph of Abraham and Mary Lincoln, why would the Lincoln community want to suppress it? There are any number of private collectors or institutions which would love to own what would be the only extant image of Lincoln photographed with his wife, and which could afford to buy it. Think of the excitement the CDV of the younger Harriet Tubman generated when it was put on the market recently.
