[CIVIL WAR]. Sixth plate tintype of a hearty fellow displaying a Model 1849 Colt pocket revolver and a sheathed Bowie knife.
Sixth plate tintype. (Image dark, moderately soft clarity, few minor scratches/dings to plate.) Housed in half, pressed paper case (surface wear/loss). A studio portrait of a hearty fellow in a distinctive checked shirt and frontier cravat, perhaps a new recruit, wearing a tasseled smoking cap. The subject displays in profile a Model 1849 Colt pocket revolver together with an intimidating sheathed Bowie knife. Civilian or volunteer, behind the square-jawed subject is a distinctive painted backdrop featuring an expansive theme with a wagon leading to a shore battery overlooking a river.
