Original U.S. Civil War Armed Union Soldier 5th Corps. Army of the Potomac Sixth Plate Tintype Photograph

Original Item: Only One Available. Everything about this image, including its presentation, makes it a splendid memento of the Civil War Era. This cased “Sixth Plate” (2.75 x 3.25 inch) tin type portrait shows an unidentified Armed Union Soldier. The included label from the collector this was purchased from indicates that he is with the Army of the Potomac 5th Corps. He wears a Blue Civil War Army Uniform, and his left arm is leaning on a Springfield Rifled Percussion Musket. The background is a typical army camp, though this is definitely a painted backdrop. An excellent look for any tin type.
