Title: Outlines & sketches
Description: "I. [i.e. J.] and L. [i.e. S.] W. Cheney engraved directly on plates daguerreotyped by Southworth and Hawes ... of Boston. Josiah Hawes ... used a special rectilinear lens of his own design to photograph the art which the Chaneys [Cheneys] engraved over. These plates must have been some of the largest ever done for publication, being well over double-whole plate."--Hanson Collection catalog, p. 12-13.
