<B>O'Sullivan Albumen From Gardner's "Sketchbook".</B></I> Albumen Photograph, HEADQUARTERS MAJ. GEN. GEORGE G. MEADE, DURING THE BATTLE IOF GETTYSBURG, by Timothy O' Sullivan (Washington: Alexander Gardner, 1865), 15.5" x 12.25" (including original matt). This image was part of Gardner's photographic series, "Incidents of the War". The matt shows browning from exposure to light, however the print retains strong, attractive tonal contrasts without fading. Fine condition. The modest farmyard depicted here is anchored by the Leister House, which sits upon the Taneytown Road.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>) <BR><BR><B>Important notice:<
