In  regard to the rarity: I would  consider having 130 images of an  1860s
personality to not be that rare  when most of the population probably  had
but one or two images of  themselves from that  period


 
 
 
And to look a bit earlier during the nineteenth century, we  can compare an 
author/celebrity who died in 1849.  According to  Michael J. Deas in his "The 
Portraits and Daguerrotypes of Edgar Allen Poe",  there are only eight known 
authentic photographs of Poe.
