 CDV
of Confederate General Braxton Bragg. This is a shot that you
often see but I've not run into this backmark on this image
before. It's marked "Daniel W. Gaskill - Photographer - North
St. - 2 Doors West of Baird's Hotel - Lebanon, Tenn". This
has to be one you don't see every day.--$150.
  Fully
cased 1/6th plate tintype of a seated Federal cavalryman. The
image has a few old scratches but retains good clarity. He is
wearing an enlistedman's 9-button frock coat and also his Model 1851
eagle saber belt rig. His cavalry saber is clearly visible and
leaning against his leg. This would be a very nice image to
compliment your cavalry display.--$295.
1850s
era daguerreotype of a young local boy. The photo is out of a
local family - The Ridleys - who had numerous young men in the
Confederate Army. I would bet that this young man was wearing a
Rebel uniform in a few years but we have no way to know for sure since
we have no ID. It's a nice clear image and is a rare
daguerreotype.--$45.
Nice
clear 1/6th plate tintype of 2 Span-Am. War soldiers in a 1/2 hard
case. You actually don't see a whole lot of soldier photographs
from this military time period. I'll bet someone out there
collects this era.--$65.
 Fully
cased 1/6th plate tintype of two Union officers. One officer is
seated and the other is standing. The image is darker than you
would like it to be but it is sound and isn't flaking at all and you can
see everything. The photo was likely taken at a camp with a
tropical type climate like Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans or some
similar city in that the patriotic backdrop has tents, flags, and Palm
trees. This is actually a neat image for the price.--$135.
   Very
rare early 1800s 1/6th plate copper Daguerreotype of a gentleman IDed on
the back of the photo as being Brig. Gen. O. J. Rice. I have no
idea who Gen. Rice was or what he did. The Dag. itself is in
exceptionally nice condition and is cased in a beautiful Gutta-Percha
case made by "Littlefield, Parsons, and Co.". This is a
fine example of early, early Daguerreotype photography.--$295.
 Nice
clear framed albumin photograph of a standing Federal officer. The
photo measures 7 1/2 inches by 9 inches overall framed and the photo
itself measures 3 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 inches. There is an old
crease running up and down on the photo just to the left of the
subject. This is a standing view with the subject wearing his
officer's 9 button frock and also wearing his model 1851 sword belt
rig. In addition he is wearing a slouch style hat with an
officer's infantry bugle hat insignia on it. His Model 1851
officer's sword is standing in front of him. This photo has really
good eye appeal.--$195.

CDV
engraving of Union Major General Phillip Kearney.--$45.SOLD
-
1/6th
plate ambrotype of a young Union soldier seated with who I
would guess to be his younger brother from his look and his
age. Both are seated, and the soldier is wearing a
frock coat and his kepi. The photo has nice clarity
but is not in a case.--$115.
-
Nice
clear large 1/4th plate tintype of a standing Union infantry
soldier. He is wearing an enlistedman's 9-button frock
coat and is holding what appears to be a Bible in his
hand. The photo has nice contrast, clarity, and has
virtually no flaking at all. It is gilt matted but not
cased.--$250.
-
Nice
clear engraving CDV of Union General Henry W. Halleck.--$35.SOLD
-
 1/6th
plate tintype of a young Union Master Sergeant.
This is a seated pose wearing a Federal shell jacket with
his sergeants striped clearly visible. This photo was
recently purchased out of the Iona Cowherd Patterson estate
in central Kentucky. The photo has some flaking but is
still a very nice tintype.--$195.
-
CDV
engraving of Commodore Nutt and Minnie Warren.--$45.
-
 Large
size Civil War era water color of a young Confederate
infantryman. This painting is out of a southern
Maryland estate sale. The frame is an original antique
and measures 10" x 12" overall. The water
color itself is an oval 7" in height and 5" in
width. This is a very well executed C.S.
likeness.--$375.
-
 CDV
engraving of Confederate President Jeff Davis. The
back is marked "Jeff Davis" and is stamped
"The Monumental Book Store-Baltimore-Wm. F. Richstein."
This photo engraving has nice, crisp clarity.--$85.SOLD

CDV
of famous "Go West Young Man" Horace Greely.
Greely is quite a Civil War personality.--$75.
-
  CDV
of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. The photo
has some yellowing from age but is complete and sound.
The photo has a rare "Webster & Bro.
Louisville" photographer's mark. On the back is
written "Jefferson Davis Pres. Confederacy--Mrs.
Hart's mother and Jeff Davis were intimate
friends--1861."--$275.
-
Patriotic
CDV of Washington and Lincoln embracing. This is a
view that you don't see very often.--$95.
-
 1/6th
plate tintype of a young Union corporal. This is a
seated pose with arms folded. He is wearing a Union
enlistedman's 9-button frock coat with his corporal stripes
clearly visible. The photo is in a half
case. It is a decent representative Civil War image
but does have a number of small scratches and is a little
dark.--only $150.
-
  
Fully
cased double set of 1/9th plate tintypes. In this set,
one tintype is a bust view of a young Union soldier wearing
a 9-button frock coat, his kepi, and also his military vest
beneath. The second tintype is of the same boy, no
doubt, before the war wearing a civilian dress coat, white
shirt, and a bow tie. It is quite fascinating to
contrast the same young man as a soldier and as a
civilian. Full case and both photos.--$195.
-

1/6th plate tintype of a seated Union infantry
sergeant mounted in a one half hard case. He is wearing a 9-button blue trimmed
enlistedman's infantry frock coat with his sergeant stripes
clearly visible. He is also wearing his
regulation U. S. belt rig, but his U.S. buckle has
been gilted. The photo has nice clarity with only a
few tiny ageing lines.--$250.
-
  Large
1/4th plate fully cased tintype of a Union
Infantryman. He is standing at attention with his
musket with bayonet standing at his side. He is
wearing a U.S. belt rig with buckle, cap box, cartridge box,
cross belt, and eagle breastplate. The photo is just a
little dark but has very good content.--$295.
-
 Full
standing pose of J.C. Showers of Shelbyville, Ind. He
is wearing a full fraternal uniform with a belt rig and
sword at his side. The photo is dated 1899 on the
reverse. It is in excellent condition.--$25.
-
 1/6th
plate tintype of a young Union private. This photo is
in a half case, and the young soldier is seated wearing a
9-button enlistedman's frock coat and also has on his
kepi. The photograph is clear and not flaking at all
but is just a little dark. This photo is out of
central Ohio, and there is a 34 on his hat. I would
guess this young fellow is a member of the 34th Ohio Vol.
Inf. This is a neat little picture at a very
affordable price.--$150.
 1/9th
plate tintype of two Union officers. One officer is standing
wearing shoulder epaulets, sword, belt rig, and foot officer's sword at
his side. The other officer is seated wearing his kepi and also
wearing shoulder epaulets. The photo is in a 1/2 ornate gutta
percha case.--$195.

and in good shape.--$55.
 CDV
of a seated Union private. He is wearing an open frock coat
exposing his vest beneath. The photo has an unusual "Jas.
Hart Muscatine, Iowa" backmark.--$65.

view CDV of a salty old Union veteran. This old fellow looks
serious enough to have seen it all.--$50.

it out. Unusual "Chas. Hart Watertown, N.Y."
backmark.--$85.

standing pose CDV of an older Union private. He is wearing an
early war style 9-button enlistedman's frock coat.--$65.SOLD
Nice
clear CDV of a seated Union Lieutenant. He is wearing an officer's
9-button frock coat and also his officer's waist sash. His forage
cap is sitting on the table beside him and has an infantry bugle hat pin
and #5 on it. This photo is out of an Illinois estate, so this
Lieutenant is probably with the 5th Illinois Infantry.--$95.
Crisp,
clear full standing pose CDV of a distinguished looking Union
captain. He is wearing an officer's 9-button frock coat with his
rank straps clearly visible. He has his forage cap in his hand
