the War operated out of Charleston SC. Moving to Richmond VA he
published these large views of many of the famous Confederate Generals in
their Uniforms which were hard to find. This Card has his Richmond VA
backmark on it. Subject is Simon Bolivar Buckner, Grant's friend from West
Point in his Confederate uniform. Buckner surrendered Fort Donelson to
Grant and served in many of the battles of the West. This view is very hard
to find any format and distinctly shows Buckner in his Confederate dress.
Great image.

Spectacular and very rare full view of a Berdann's Sharpshooter with his
Sharps Rifle wearing his Green Sash. View is of Henry E Kinsman of
Royalton Vt who served with the 1st USSS from 9/61 - 9/64 rising in rank
from 1st Sergent to 1st Lt. He was wounded at the battle of the Wilderness
on 5/7/64. Sharpshooters are rare but to see one with his Sharps Rifle is
incredably rare and important. I also have never seen one with his sash on
either. Image has a NY backmark and would be the cornerstone of any great
collection.
