2 Antique CDV Photographs Large Groups of Men, Military
These are two antique Carte de Visite photographs depicting large groups of men. One appears to be a military unit, possibly Naval, some with hats and insignia. This is an outdoor shot in front of a building. The back side has the name of the studio, in Coeln, Germany. The other is a studio portrait of men of various ages, all dressed in their finest. The photographer is named, and the town of Ypsilanti, Michigan. There is also something penciled in on back, with the date 1870. The size of the photos is standard, 2 1/2 x 4 inches. They are in good condition, with clear images, but some spotting, staining, and wear. * * Its rare to find groups this large in photos like these, and the military is especially good.
