Alexander S. Wolcott (inventor), John Johnson (inventor)

Source 1 is "Famous First Facts" (1997) by Joseph Nathan Kane- Page 414 item #5813. The first commercial photography studio in the world was opened on March 4, 1840, in New York City by Alexander S. Wolcott and John Johnson. On May 8, 1840, Wolcott received the first photography patent, for “a method of taking likenesses by means of a concave reflector and plates so prepared that luminous or other rays will act thereon.”
Source 2 is The History of Photography Archive website In 1840 March New York opticians Alexander Wolcott and John Johnson open a daguerreotype portrait studio in New York City, the first anywhere in the world, and developed a mirrored camera which produced correctly oriented images and faster exposure times.
Source 3 is "Collecting and Preserving Old Photographs" (1988) by Elizabeth Martin - Commercial portraiture on demand became feasible, and in March 1840 the world's first daguerreotype portrait studio was opened in New York by Alexander Wolcott and John Johnson.
Source 4 is Library of Congress - In 1840, the first commercial portrait gallery, New York's Wolcott and Johnson, used large mirrors mounted outside the studio to project as much sunlight onto the customer as possible, in a sitting that could last for as long as eight minutes.
    • ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

Created by Doug Coldwell (talk). Self-nominated at 11:18, 14 August 2017 (UTC). (talk) 22:50, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg for Alexander S. Wolcott: the article is long enough, is neutral, contains no close paraphrasing or copyvio, the hook is neutral, short enough, interesting, is properly sourced with an inline source citation, that the article itself is adequately sourced and written in adequate English Elisa.rolle (talk) 22:26, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg Elisa.rolle, thanks for your review (please be sure to sign all reviews!). This nomination, unlike most, has two articles nominated, Alexander S. Wolcott (inventor) and John Johnson (inventor)—you can tell because each article has its own bold link in the hook. You can certainly only do one of them if you prefer—I believe you've done Wolcott based on the link you left elsewhere for your QPQ—but until both are approved, a tick should not be given here. Reviewing both counts as two QPQ reviews. There is a problem here in that Doug Coldwell has only provided a single QPQ review for a two-article nomination; he'll need to provide another QPQ. (I apologize for forgetting to mention that DYK reviews need to check that the necessary QPQ review(s) must be provided, and these must also meet the DYK reviewing requirements; incomplete reviews do not count.) Just for future reference, using the "y" template is not needed; we discourage the use of such templates at QPQ because of problems with too many templates on our very long nominations and approval pages. Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 22:15, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg for John Johnson: the article is long enough, is neutral, contains no close paraphrasing or copyvio (1%), the hook is neutral, short enough, interesting, is properly sourced with an inline source citation, that the article itself is adequately sourced and written in adequate English Elisa.rolle (talk) 22:26, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
