The Collected Library, Including Americana and Early Photography

Sixth plate ambrotype portrait of a field grade officer, possibly English, standing confidently in a studio setting, one hand positioned on his hip while the other rests on a chair beside him. He appears to wear a Crimean War medal, indicating that he served in the Crimean War (a bit soft in focus, but overall good). Housed in full thermoplastic Union case, Washington Medallion (Berg 1-74) (significant wear to edges and corners of case, including chipping and some areas of loss, particularly to the bottom edges).
