This is a clear 1/9 plate ambrotype in a full patriotic leatherette case with Liberty and a flag on the face. This image
is published as a cover photo to a book. Unfortunately, I can't remember which book, but if someone knows, please email me
and I'll add that detail. The image features a boy who has a 1000 yard stare. He wears a Richmond style shell jacket with a
slash pocket. There is a device on the top two buttons that are just barely out of focus, but could easily be Virginia State
seal buttons. There are abrasions on the image that can be seen in the scan. The image has good brightness and contrast. #3029=$850.00
