  Fully
cased 1/9th plate tintype of a young Confederate IDed as "I. A. Stone -
13th Tenn." The image is nice and clear and is cased in a "Union
Patent" Gutta Percha case. Also in the case is an ambrotype of a
young lady who I assume is his wife or girl friend. He is wearing an
early war style "butternut" shell jacket. This is a really nice
Confederate image at a terrific price.--$295.SOLD

Absolutely
crystal clear 1/9th plate "Ruby" ambrotype of a young Southern Volunteer.

see.--$425.SOLD
-
1/6th
plate ambrotype of a young armed Confederate. The image is in a half
case and has excellent content, and decent clarity, but does have some
scuff marks. If this image was crisp and clear it would be a $2,000.
image. Still a very nice armed Confederate image and at a fantastic
price.--$395.

 Absolutely
beautiful crystal clear 1/6th plate "Ruby" ambrotype of a young South

Confederate uniform and wearing the "officer of the day"

bayonet is in the other. You just never see images like this
anymore.--$2,250.
Nice
clear, large 1/4th plate tintype of two young Federal infantry
soldiers. Both are wearing a regulation 9-button enlistedmen's
frock coat with full belt rig, cross strap, and plates. It's hard

attractive image with good content.--$395.

coat, Hardee Hat with a bugle hat insignia, and his large size U.S. oval
waist belt plate. The image is clear as can be and is cased in a

nice enough for a museum level display.--$325.
     Excellent
condition double cased images of a father and son in a fine
"Holmes, Booth, & Hayden" Guttapercha case. The
image of the son is a nice, clear military with a Colt revolver across
his chest. The image of the father is clear as well with a gilted
masonic pin clearly visible. Just a fine condition case and set of
images.--$425.
 CDV
of Major General George B. McClellan - backmark of "J. O. Kane -
N.Y."--$75.
 Collection

soldiers - two Civil War era clergy - and two Span-Am. War
soldiers. There are a variety of different backmarks including a
rare San Francisco, Cal. one.--$175. for the entire collection - That's
less than $30. per image.

sling. This is a seated pose and he is wearing an enlistedman's
frock coat, kepi, full belt rig with over-the-soldier sling, and Enfield
musket across his chest. And Ruby Ambro to boot.--$375.
  Really
great image -- This is a fully cased 1/6th plate tintype of a rough
looking double armed Federal soldier [probably from Ohio]. The
image is crystal clear with an Enfield musket across his chest at half
cock with the nipple protector visible hanging down. There is, in
addition, a big 44 cal. Colt Army revolver stuck in behind his
belt. The image is cased in a nice patriotic motif full
case. Very few images of this quality come on the market
anymore.--$650.
 This
is a fully cased 1/6th plate tintype of a Federal soldier with about
everything that you can imagine hanging on him. There are several
small scuffs and scratches but you just NEVER see images with full
accoutrements ready to march to the front.--$550.
   Very
nice 1/9th plate fully cased tintype of a Tennessee Confederate.
This one was purchased many years ago out of a Nashville, TN. estate
sale and is a seated Confederate with a "Hardee" style hat,
plume, and infantry hat insignia. He is wearing a
"Butternut" jacket with what appear to be floral style buttons
of the exact type that we recently recovered from Lucius Polk's 1863
Confederate winter camps here. I am including one of the buttons
with the image. This image would be a nice addition to any
Southern collection.--$595.
Beautiful
and tough to come by 1973 print of General Nathan Bedford Forrest that
was done by the Sons of Confederate Veterans over 30 years ago.
The print is BIG measuring 24 inches by 30 inches before framing and is
absolutely breathtaking once it's matted and framed. I seldom get
these in anymore.--$89.
Nice
clear 1/6th plate tintype of a young Union private. This is a
seated pose wearing his shell jacket and is in a 1/2 hard case.--$135.
 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.--$95.
  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.
   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.
-
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

virtually no flaking at all. It is gilt matted but not
cased.--$250.
-
 1/6th
plate tintype of a young Union Master Sergeant.
This is a seated pose wearing a Federal shell jacket with

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
of famous "Go West Young Man" Horace Greely.
Greely is quite a Civil War personality.--$75.

Hart's mother and Jeff Davis were intimate
friends--1861."--$275.

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

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.

Infantryman. He is standing at attention with his
musket with bayonet standing at his side. He is

little dark but has very good content.--$295.

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

it out. Unusual "Chas. Hart Watertown, N.Y."
