Encore: Dr. and Gitty Haring CDVs

When I featured these CDVs recently along with some of the doctor's medical stuff, I lamented the fact that they weren't bigger. Now they are.

They appear to be the same identical pair from that auction, but the seller's ID is not that of the winner of the previous auction.



Seller's description:

You are bidding on a pair of Civil War dated, 1864, Civilian CDVs.  CDV pair is Husband and Wife and each is identified on the back with the photographer and revenue stamp and date.  First CDV is of the Wife seated with print dress and white bonnet or kerchief, image is clear and sharp, detail good, contrast a bit light.  Back of CDV the woman is Id'd in dark period ink as " Gitty Haring ( Naring ) aged 57 years - 1864" Orange Revenue Stamp with photographers cancellation.   The second CDV, the Husband is dressed in dark suit with lighter vest and tie, image is very sharp and clear, great contrast.  Back of CDV is Id'd in the same hand and ink as the Wife CDV as " D T Haring  ( Naring ) aged 59 years - 1864 " Orange Revenue with photographers cancellation and date ( 1864 ).  Both Civil War era Civilian CDVs are photographer backmarked the same, " J. D. Terhune, Photographer, Hackensack, N.J. ( New Jersey )" a well known CW era photographer.  Both CDV images are offered in very good condition without tears, folds, bends, holes, or stains as pictured.
