About The Author

Supplement:

Updated in 2024!

This supplement remains as a work in progress. It is the compendium of only those nineteenth century photographic cases which I have deemed worthy of recording and which I have seen since 2016 when the third edition of my book Nineteenth Century Photographic Cases and Wall Frames was published.

Undoubtedly more items will surface in the future but the rate at which this is happening has slowed to less than a trickle. Certainly, it would have been better and more convenient for the user had I integrated them into the third edition. Such would have required revising the total page layout of that text, a tremendous task of time, energy and expense. The resulting volume would be close to eight hundred pages and cost of production would render the final product cost prohibitive to the buyer. Also, there would be little demand for it especially from those who already have the last edition. Perhaps in the future the original work can be divided into two volumes with the supplementary material included in the appropriate page location. All references to the 3rd edition refer to that printing of Nineteenth Century Photographic Cases and Wall Frames.

Great Value for a ball my dog loves!
Color: S6-muti-color
I wish these ball were in the subscription program! My dog gets sooo excited by the new ball, but her interest in things lasts for a few days. She kills the squeak within 11minutes, but the squeaker stays in place rather than becoming a chocking or swallow hazard, and she still loves to chew it. Next, we must throw the ball approximately 723 times the first day, possibly 496 times on day 2, and just 3- 4 on day 3, at which point she will chase the ball before hollering "it's over here if you need it," while she checks on the chipmunk den. We currently have 17 of these balls in our yard (because we have given several leftovers to a less discriminating doodle next door). These balls hold up really well, get her extremely active for the first couple of days, and are a much cheaper than doggie daycare (after an active morning with a new ball, she is happy to chew on it and sleep much of the day). I always have these on hand!

Pieces chewed off
Color: white & green
My Aussiedoodle loves it. I throw it down the hallway, it bounces crazy, and he chases it. The only complaint is that he can't chew much of the ball part. So now I have to have it put away and brought out for special playtime.

Solid interactive automatic vibrating dog ball toy
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
Picked up this ITEHZTO interactive automatic vibrating dog ball for our pup and it’s a fun, engaging toy that keeps her entertained. It’s rechargeable with USB, motion-activated, and has a good vibrating/rolling action that gets her chasing and playing on her own. The durable build seems like it can handle some rough play, and it’s a nice size for indoor or outdoor use. It lights up or vibrates when activated which adds extra excitement, especially during evening playtime. Battery life is decent and recharges quickly. Great for when she needs mental and physical stimulation without me having to throw a ball constantly. Overall a solid interactive dog toy that does a great job keeping active dogs busy. Good value if your dog loves chasing moving/vibrating toys!

Built-in USB-C solves the power issue, but it is strictly for moderate chewers
Color: Blue
Got this to keep the high-energy puppy occupied indoors so the older dogs can actually get some peace and quiet. The main issue with most automated electronic pet toys is that they rely on expensive, hard-to-find button cell batteries that die after a single afternoon of use. This unit utilizes a built-in 300mAh battery with a standard Type-C charging interface. That is a mandatory design feature if you actually want to run the toy daily without going broke replacing power cells. The internal motor generates enough erratic movement to keep a dog's attention, and it actually has the torque to navigate over standard tile, hardwood, and light carpets without instantly stalling out in a corner. You need to completely understand the physical limitations of what you are unboxing here. The listing explicitly states this is not for heavy chewers, and you need to take that warning seriously. The outer shell is TPU, but the internal chassis housing the electronics is hard ABS plastic. If you hand this to an 80-pound working dog that aggressively shreds thick bones, they are going to crush the housing and destroy the internal motor assembly in about ten minutes. At roughly 2.5 inches in diameter, it's basically the size of a standard tennis ball. If you use it as intended—as an interactive chasing toy for a puppy or a moderate chewer rather than a heavy-duty chew toy—it functions perfectly. It is a highly practical piece of indoor enrichment gear. Solid return on investment for burning off excess canine energy.

Pawsitively Stimulating🐾
Color: Blue
When my hooman brought this home, I thought it was fur their computer. After all, it has a plug and lights up. When they placed it on the floor, I was pawsomely surprised. Fur real, this little ball is wierd. It doesn't taste at all like my favorite tennis ball. I was a pawplexed that sometimes when I was finally brave enough to get it and hold it in my mouth, it would start jumping around. I think my hoomans finally found a toy that will keep me busy for a while. Mom is howling with excitement because it kept me interested for a long time. I hope I can sleep tonight. I see mom has plugged in my new toy to keep it "charged"- whatever that means....I never had a toy that came with its own leash before. Mom says she is gonna save the toy until other hoomans come over to keep me from being too ruff with them. You see the video, do I look a dog who could be too ruff?- Sincerely, the family dog, a bona-fido toy reviewer
