1/9th Plate Ambrotype of a Confederate Officer
<B>1/9th Plate Ambrotype of an Unidentified Confederate Officer.</B></I> An interesting image of a uniformed and seated Confederate officer. The officer wears his jacket unbuttoned, and the rank insignia on the collar and the buttons have been hand tinted gold. Unfortunately there is nothing depicted in the image to aid in identifying the officer's specific regiment. Yet, the image clearly shows the depth of expression on his face. There is some slight speckling to the surface of the image and some light ghosting around the edges; else, it is in very good condition, housed in the lower half of the original case with gilt mat. This image appeared in William Albaugh's books <I>Confederate Faces</B></I> and <I>More Confederate Faces</B></I>.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Smal (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
