6th Plate Tintype Tinted Photo Disgruntled Young Civil War Union Soldier

I am pleased to offer this Antique Hand-Tinted 6th Plate Tintype Photograph of a Disgruntled Young American Civil War Union Soldier!  This young man sits in his uniform with a serious frown, furrowed brow, and frazzled hair.  The tintype is in an intricate brass mat and protector, and comes in a half case.  The  hat emblem was hand-tinted gold.

This antique tintype is in good condition for its age, showing some very light dust and some oil spots from being handled. There are some very small spots of patina on the brass.  The half-case shows moderate edge wear from storage/display. 

 Case Measures approx. 3-5/8 H x 3-1/8″ W .  Photo approx. 2-3/4″ W x 3-1/4″ H
