[CIVIL WAR]. CDV and tintype of African American Private Edmund Delany, 124th United States Colored Troops.

2 x 3 5/8 in. CDV on cardstock mount (moderate to heavy wear throughout image including surface damage, soiling, discoloration, and fold to upper left corner; mount trimmed). Subject stands wearing a hat, long jacket, and pinkie ring. Pencil identification on verso reads, "Ed Delany." -- 2 3/8 x 3 7/8 in. tintype portrait (clipped corners, creases, wear to edges and corners). Same subject sits in a chair, wearing a hat, watch chain, and pinkie ring. Together, 2 studio portraits. Both uncredited, though CDV likely represents Delany during the war era and tintype likely shows him after the war.

Private Edmund Delany enlisted on 23 November 1864 at Covington, KY, mustering into Company F of the 124th United States Colored Troops that same day.
