Description
Sixth plate tintype of an unidentified Federal soldier. No doubt taken during the warmer months as this young soldier has shed his heavy wool military jacket. He doesn’t appear to be much older than 18 if that. The soldier displays his forage cap in one hand while gripping a M1858 Remington Army revolver tucked into his US waist belt. This one is slightly dark with some small black spots located in the center of his chest. It does come housed in a full leatherette case.
