The collection is the culmination of nearly four decades of selective collecting and features one of the most remarkable assemblages of postmortem daguerreotypes to be offered to the public in recent memory.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Part I of the Steve Roden Collection: Music in Vernacular Photographs offers an exceptional selection of music-themed photography from the man who literally wrote the book on the subject. The collection includes several hundred cased images, CDVs, cabinet cards, and real photo postcards dating from the mid-19th to mid-20th century featuring musicians and bands posed with their instruments, unique musical creations, and early listening and recording devices. Many of the photographs offered in the collection are illustrated in the book, &#8230;i listen to the wind that obliterates my traces: music in vernacular photographs, 1880-1955, published by Steve Roden in 2011.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto.
