Description
Very nice sixth plate ambrotype of an unidentified Confederate soldier. The image came out of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Inside the case, written in pencil on a piece of paper, are what look to me like the initials “HFP.” Also written in ink are the letters “CSA.” The soldier is dressed in a shell jacket with gilded buttons. The collar is turned down to reveal that he is wearing a tie. The image comes in a leatherette case with repaired spine.
