This engraved portrait of Edgar
Allan Poe was done by R. G. Teitze. It was published in the Century
Magazine,
September 1894. It shows the "McKee" Daguerreotype, presumably taken
about
1843.
The original daguerreotype was last seen in February of 1905, when it was offered for auction in New York. An unidentified buyer paid $21 (Deas, Portraits, p. 15).
