<B>Cased 1/6th Plate Tintype of an Armed Federal Soldier.</B></I> Everything about this image, including its presentation, makes it a splendid memento of the Civil War. A seated Union private holding his Springfield wears a standard nine-button frock coat, a US oval belt plate, an eagle breastplate, and a belt rig equipped with a cap box. Of considerable interest is a diamond-shaped metal border pinned to his kepi next to its diminutive buckle. This appears to be a Third Corps badge lacking its colored felt divisional insert. The image is behind an ornate brass mat loaded with patriotic imagery and reading "Constitution and Union" around the inner rim edging the tintype. A gutta-percha case molded front and back with a scene of a Monitor-style ironclad completes the piece. The tintype enjoys excellent surfaces with only slight emulsion crazing that cannot be seen when the image is viewed head on. Overall very fine condition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Miscellaneous Collectibles, Smal (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>) <BR><BR><B>Important notice:<
