CDV - POSSIBLE 5TH WISCONSIN - Full standing view of soldier in frock coat holding his kepi. No photographer's marking but is signed on reverse.Tough to decipher on the last name. The only name I was able to seemingly match was Archibald W. Diarck, Co. A, 5th Wis. Inf. Only possible discrepancy is that he enlisted as a corporal but the image shows no stripes. Some soiling and rounded corners as can be seen in photos.

4TH MICHIGAN INFANTRY - REORGANIZED - 2 IMAGES & ALBUM - Nice album with 50 images - 30 CDV's & 20 tintypes - most of the CDV's are War period images. One has a Kalamazoo, Mi backmark, the rest either have tax stamps or no photographers marks at all. There are 4 identified images - 3 on the album page and one on the reverse of a CDV. Among the identified on the page (in early ink - not Civil War period but old) is Orlando Miner and Irvin S. Miner. Orlando is in uniforn (tintype) with corporal's stripes and tax stamp. Irvin is in civilian clothing (CDV) and also has a tax stamp on reverse. Doing a search there turns up only one hit for each name - both in the 4th Michigan Inf. - Reorganized. Both mustered in in Aug., 1866. Orlando was indeed a corporal and the tax stamp tells that the image was taken between 1864 - 67. Album and all images are in very good condition with exception of some marring on cover.
