Albumen measuring approximately 10" X 8" showing Company H of the 48th Regiment New York State Volunteers in "Parade Dress" formation within the walls of Fort Pulaski, Georgia. Full contingent of Company H in full dress uniforms wiht enlisted men wearing shoulder scales and white gloves and officers wearing plumed Hardee hats. Just a wonderful image published extensively during and after the Civil War and still housed in its original Victorian Era frame in superb condition with no dings or chips whatsoever. Top notch in all aspects.

If you collect medical or surgeon Civil War artifacts then this grouping is for you. A signed CDV of Theodore S. Christ on the reverse that states "Yours Truly, Theo. S. Christ, Surgeon, 45th P.V.V." including a Paymaster Order dated July 6, 1864. The order has been signed twice perfectly by Surgeon Christ. The signatures are a dead match to the CDV signature. Surgeon Christ enlisted on 10/12/1861 as an Asst. Surgeon. He was commisioned on that date into the Field & Staff of the 45th Pennsylvania Infantry and was mustered out on 10/20/1864. What a grouping! Three quality signatures on a CDV & document of a Pennsylvania surgeon that saw it all.

A crystal clear albumen photograph of Union Officer George W. Ford with his horse in front of camp barracks. Ford enlisted on 8/22/1861 as a Captain. On 9/18/1861 he was commissioned into the 50th New York Engineers, Co. "A". Ford was promoted to Major on 4/9/1864 and then to Lt. Colonel on 3/13/1865 by brevet. On 4/9/1864 he was transferred from Company "A" to Field & Staff. A photograph of the same exact image is pictured in the American Civil War Research Database and will accompany the photograph.

An Alabama cavalry officer standing holding his Hardee Hat with a revolver tucked in his belt. The photographer is "J. P. Phelps" of Sheffield, Alabama. The photograph is a CDV that is on a post-war photographer card. The CDV itself is definitely a war period image. A great photograph of what a rebel cavalry officer looked like.

Carte-de visite photograph of Native American Warrior Pui-Wi-Sain-Shish (Bad Boy); Chief of the Gull Lake Chippewas. Knees up seated view wearing blanket / robe and holding a musket or rifle. Photograph by J.E. Whitney of St. Paul Minnesota in 1862. Card printing states "Who to Escape the Vengeance of the Indians. When they discovered his friendship for the whites in the outbreak of 1862, he was obliged to seek the protection of Fort Ripley." Minor foxing with one spot near top. Another fantastic image offered from the Union Cavalryman.
