[EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY]. A group of 27 cased images, including 7 Civil War soldiers. [ca. 1860s-1880s]. Group of daguerreotype, amrbotype, and tintype portraits, nearly all in elaborate folding frames (many are papier-mache relief bindings with metallic gold-colored mats). Generally 4 x 3? and smaller. Some general age wear, several frames are broken at the folds, but both upper and lower covers are present, some wear to frames due to use and age. Sold with 2 small tintype albums (photos are thumbnail-sized, the usual wear). An excellent group.
