Wonderful view of Two Bushwhackers from the Civil War Conflict in the Missouri,
Kansas and Iowa area. Shown are two Clearly irregular Cavalrymen or
Bushwhackers displaying their Hardware of Swords and Pistols. Nothing to
resemble Union Soldiers with the irregular clothing though one does have a
Union Cavalry belt buckle on. Typical of the types involved in the messy Border
wars that marred much of the area during the War. Backmark by Blackall of
Clinton Iowa. Just a fantastic picture of two rough and ready antagonists. The
lack of any formal uniforms makes one wonder if they are part of Quantrill's men?
