Isaac H. Dupee, Daguerrean & Ambrotypist, Z. Hyde’s building, Front St., Bath, Me.  Having bought the right of Sagadahoc County, is now prepared to take these beautiful pictures, which are admired by all who see them.  By this method it only requires one third of the time required for a Daguerreotype.  Children can be taken in one second.  Persons wishing likenesses of their children have no treason now for saying they can not get them. All they have to do is to bring them to me.  I can take them in any weather, and get them natural and good; the stormy weather is just as good as a bright day. These pictures are not reversed as a daguerreotype—are more durable, and are seen in any light, and are more natural than any other picture.  You can have pictures copied from others in this way to any size.

All are invited to call and examine specimens at my rooms, and see for themselves.  Every attention paid to persons in want of daguerreotypes or ambrotypes at my rooms.

On hand a good assortment of Cases of all kinds, Lockets, Pins, Rings, &c., sold at the lowest prices, and warranted to be as good as the best.

Something New.  Ambrotypes Or Pictures On Glass.  Isaac H. Dupee, having bought the right of Sagadahoc County, for taking these beautiful and life-like pictures, is now ready to furnish the public with them at his old stand in Z. Hyde’s Building, Front-St., Bath.  These pictures should only be seen to be admired; they are taken on the best of plate glass, and secured between another glass by an indestructible gum, enabling the picture to retain its brilliancy for years. They will not corrode, or change in any climate, can be seen in any light, and are as enduring as the glass upon which they are taken.  They are not reversed, but are taken in the natural position of the sitter: they require only about one third of the time of a daguerreotype; by that a person gets a more natural picture.  The worst of weather is as good as the best.  By this method young children can be taken in one second, thus securing a picture of your little ones as perfect as themselves.  Pictures can be copied by this way from daguerreotypes, magnified to any size.

The public are invited to call and examine specimens at my rooms, where they will be shown to any person who will take the trouble to call and see them.

All work entrusted to my care will be executed with promptness and dispatch.  Copying done for rings, pins, lockets &c., and warranted.  On hand a good assortment of Cases, Frames, &c. such as are usually found in an establishment like this, which will be sold cheap for cash.  Bath, Jan 28, 1856.
