This scarce and interesting work, printed around 1890, shows copy images of the daguerreotypes of Thomas Easterly, as well as photographs made by the book's creator, Emil Boehl.

Each page has a large photograph printed directly on a page, or a photograph printed on a card that is mounted on a page, ranging in size from 5 1/2 x 9 inches to a whole page. They are Chronologically arranged, the first image is a copy of an 1840 watercolor. The second is a variant of the daguerreotype that is illustrated on the jacket cover of Dolores A Kilgo's book "Landscape and Likeness: Thomas M. Easterly and the Art of the Daguerreotype (199)." The book goes on to show several more photos of Easterly daguerreotypes with numerous other variants of known images, followed by images taken by Emil Boehl. Boehl was a St. Louis commercial photographer that primarily focused on capturing St. Louis streets, buildings, and locales, as well as producing copies of Easterly's daguerreotypes and distributing them as his own.

The book is quite rare. It is not found in OCLC and this is possibly the only known copy.
