We copy the following from a Dubuque, Iowa, paper. Messrs. Corey & Pickerill succeed Mr. W. H. White. We wish them prosperity in their new enterprise:
Corey & Pickerill’s Daguerreotypes. — We feel that we owe something of an apology to the above gentlemen, inasmuch as we have never noticed the superior excellence of their pictures, and the tasteful elegance of their rooms, as they deserve. Amongst all the operators in this line of business, who have visited Dubuque, it is doing them but simple justice to say, that they have never been surpassed in the tone, superior finish, and uniform excellence of their daguerreotypes. Their rooms are most conveniently and tastefully arranged, and they have a large collection of specimen plates, embracing many of our prominent citizens, and our most interesting and beautiful ladies. Their operating room combines the advantages of both sky and side lights, with apparatus for directing it at the will of the operator. The public will find themselves warmly welcomed by the gentlemanly proprietors, and we consider a visit to Messrs. Corey & Pickerill’s ” National Daguerrean rooms,” as one of the chief attractions of the city
