1856 October 31.  Green Mountain Farmer.  (Woodstock, Vermont.)  October 31, 1856, Vol. II, No. 28, P. 3.

Cutter’s (sic.) Patent Ambrotypes!  F. J. Amsden would respectfully invite public attention to those new and beautiful pictures at his saloon at Randolph Centre, (soon to be is West Randolph.)

The picture is taken on fine plate glass, and rendered imperishable by cementing to another glass, with the picture inside.  They are bold, clear and distinct—are not reversed, and will not change in any climate.  This process is better for taking likenesses of children than any other, as we can operate in one-forth the time.  Copies taken of daguerreotypes, portraits, &c.

Pictures taken of deceased persons and invalids at their residences.

Please call and examine specimens.  Prices reasonable.  F. J. Amsden.

Advertisement ran from October 31, 1856 to January 9, 1857.
