Original carte-de-visite 2.25 x 4 portrait photo of Morse by Borgadus of New York, including gold-ruled mount, boldly signed in the bottom border in ink, “Samuel F. B. Morse,” with an interesting paraph suggesting telegraphic signals. A few scattered surface wrinkles, marks, and spots of soiling, otherwise fine condition. A remarkably clear and crisp image of the man who pioneered the single-wire telegraph. Originally sold by Christie’s in 1998.
