Wet plate, albumen carte de visite photograph, mounted to 2 3/8 x 4 card. Full standing view of a young Confederate soldier wearing a shell jacket and kepi with the brim turned up. He poses with his hand on a studio table with table covering at his side. No imprint. Probably a Confederate cavalryman or artilleryman. Light age toning, and wear, and a surface abrasion to the reverse of the card. Very nice looking image of a young "Johnny Reb" soldier.
