“Improved Ambrotype.
The undersigned has discovered a new process of Ambrotyping, by which the picture is THROWN OUT FROM A GRAINED GROUND, and represented in a perfectly life-like position.
He would therefore invite all persons interested in this art, to call and examine specimens of his work. He feels confident that his discovery is superior to anything ever before offered in the Daguerrean art FOR REPRESENTING LIFE ITSELF in the Picture. The price of pictures taken by the IMPROVED PROCESS, is from $1.00 upwards, according to size and style of cases.
G. A. VALLET, No. 72 North Front St.”
