If you lived in Toronto, I would suggest calling Mike Robinsin at Century Camera. He is one of the very reare few making a living as full-time daguerreotypist. He teaches workshops at the George Eastman House and knows anybody who is important in the world of dag's. I can't track his email address, but he could be reached either through the Photographic Historical Society of Canada http://www.phsc.ca/index.html or the Capitol Gallery at http://www.capitolgallery.com/contact.html
The latter seem to be quite knowleageable about who's who in the world of dag's.
