Those wishing Good Work and at Reasonable Rates, should call and see for themselves the best collection of work ever exhibited in this part of the world. All pictures shown by Mr. Johnson are made by him in his gallery.
Mr. Johnson would call particular attention to his life-size Portraits from life, and enlarged from old defaced Pictures, and made perfect by the art of the brush.
He has the only Patent Copying Instrument in Delaware Co., and claims copying as a specialty.
All the old style of Pictures, such as Ambrotypes, Tintypes, Porcelain, & c., made at short notice.
Mr. Johnson’s India Ink Portraits, new style Sun Pearls, are the admiration of every person.
He has the most extensive assortment of Oval and Square Frames, Picture Nails, Cords and Tassels, Albums, & c. in Delhi.
