We do not know about the 1850s. We do have a number of CDVs from the 1860s and we note blank bavks which have been stamped by the photographer with his name and often the address. I'm not sure theu had rubber syamps, but they clearly had sime kind of stap with printing. This idea seems to have been adopted in America almost as soon as CDVs appeared. I'm less sure about Europe. Card stock with the photographer's name were not commonly avaolable at first. Some photographers wrote in the negative number here. We do not yet know to what extent this continued in later decades. With printed fronts and backs of course it became less necessary.
