Rehn and Sons, Photographers, Philadelphia, Pa.

Rehn and Sons, Photographers, Philadelphia, Pa.
"Rehn & Sons' new & commodious ground floor galleries, 510 Arch Street, Philadelphia. Portraits, card, ivorytypes, ambrotypes, photographs, in crayon, pastel, water, and oil."

The U.S. Internal Revenue stamp on this CDV backmark dates it to between August 1, 1864, and August 1, 1866. Another Rehn and Sons backmark, which is part of Richard D. Sheaff's amazing collection, has an added border and a handwritten date of March 1866.
