Quarter plate ambrotype of standing Federal with arm around musket that could be a Model 1855. He wears an oil cloth cap cover as well as a Rhode Island hat insignia, white buff shoulder sling with outline of cartridge box and a plain square brass belt plate. No glass - never had one and the ambrotype is sealed as it were a daguerrotype. Has two names scratched into back plate. Case is absolutely original to the image and in excellent condition with a perfect hinge.

No doubt a young confederate image with what appears to be home made eppaulettes with stars sewn on each side. The young rebel is wearing the often seen confederate battle shirt and cap with insignia. The image is housed in a 1/9th leatherette case. Some emulsion on image but does not detract overall. If you collect confederate images than you should consider this one.

Superb quarter plate ambrotype of Albert Wintermute of Co. E, 3rd Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Image shows full standing view of Wintermute holding a Model 1842 musket with bayonet affixed wearing a great coat and kepi. He also is equipped with a full set of accoutrements including belt with US oval plate, canteen, haversack (just partially visible), cartridge box, bayonet scabbard and knapsack (sling strap visible around upper right arm) and blanket roll showing. Overall, the image has great visual appeal. The quarter plate half case is in poor condition, however, a forty or fifty year old label detailing the identification of Wintermute and unit was pasted to the outside of the case by a family member.
Albert Wintermute enlisted in the 3rd Ohio on April 24, 1861 and was mustered out on June 21, 1864. The unit saw extensive service in the western theater and suffered heavy losses at Perryville, KY and Stone's River, TN. National Archives military and pension records accompany this image.

Offered is a very clear 1/6th tintype image of Lyman White of the 33rd Wisconsin Infantry, Co. I. Lyman White enlisted on 8/14/1862 and was mustered out on 8/9/1865. White served three years of the Civil War fighting for the state of Wisconsin. The image is housed in a half case and his coat buttons are nicely tinted. The identification is provided by a handwritten note from the family and was tucked behind the image. Copies of his records will also be provided.

Offered is a 1/6th plate of a union officer on his horse and is fully equipped. You can clearly see his M1860 Staff & Field Officer sword and insignia. In the background is a row of tents set up among the trees. The image does have emulsion around the edges but the officer and his horse are clear. The image is housed in a half case. Officers on horseback are seldom encountered.
