- Comment - It could well be the "earliest" photograph". Is there a reference stating such? MathewTownsend (talk) 23:52, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
- Haven't found any yet, but as the salt print was introduced in 1839 (or 1841 in a another source) it's possible (note that it's not a definite statement above) Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:27, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
