Rare original War period Tintype of a Union General and his staff.  
A Brigadier General is seated in the middle of the group.  There are
several thoughts on who me might be including Washington L Ellet
or Giles A Smith. Unfortunately since tins are unique, its impossible
to have another identified copy.  This is a 6th plate which comes
un-cased.  Very rare to have an original TT like this of a General
officer.
$1250
     
1/6th plate tintype of a disheveled looking Union Soldier wearing a 4
button sack coat and looking like he just came in from the field.  
Buttons are gilt, wearing Union pants and has some type of
non-regulation shirt on that might be considered a battle shirt.
$150
Handsome Union Private in a 1/6th plate TT shown seated wearing
his frock coat.  Hands are in gloves and his cheeks are rouged.  
Separated case has 2 revenue stamps in it totaling 5 cents.  Good
clean image.
