Unidentified photographer / artist
1852 (after)
CDV album with a music box inside

Carte de visite album
Archives of Modern Conflict OR National Gallery of Canada
This album's first ten pages held 20 CDVs back to back, and when opened to the middle, the music box played the melody Home Sweet Home written in 1852, a very popular tune in mid-nineteenth century parlors, both in England and America. It is key wound through the back cover.
