CIVIL WAR UNION SOLDIERS FAMILY IDENTIFIED w/SABRE AMBRO & 4 TINTYPES QUINCY MI GUTTA CDV FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS THIS NICE COLLECTION OF CIVIL WAR HISTORY. A WHOLE GATHERING OF CIVIL WAR IDENTIFIED PHOTOS. LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE A FEW GENERATIONS AGO GATHERED THESE THINGS TOGETHER. ANDRUS FAMILY QUINCY MICHIGAN SAMUEL E.

NELSON ANDRUS AND WESLEY ANDRUS. IN UNIFORM IN THE LARGE QUARTER PLATE TINTYPE WITH SABRE. WE BELIEVE THIS MAY BE AN OFFICER'S GARB TOO. SAMUEL ANDRUS IS ALSO THE NON SARGENT BROTHER IN UNIFORM IN THE SITTING POSED TINTYPE.

SARGENT IS HIS BROTHER WESLEY. THE UNION BROTHERS SHOT IS A 6TH PLATE. ANOTHER SOLDIER PHOTO SINGLE IS OF SAMUEL TOO (OR SO THESE WERE MARKED WHEN DISCOVERED). THERE ARE ALSO TWO NICE SHOTS OF WOMEN IN THE FAMILY.

THE ONE LADY IN THE OVAL SHOT HAS A GUTTA PERCHA OVAL CASE. CONSIDERABLE WORTH TO JUST THIS PARTICULAR CASE. A WONDERFULLY DESIGNED SETTING FOR THE SHOT TOO. OVAL PIECE ALSO HAS MARKINGS OF THE CASE BEING A "UNION" CASE MADE BY LITTLEFIELD & CO JUST FOR DAGUERREOTYPES.

THERE IS A SMALL CHIP AT THE LATCH POINT ON THIS OVAL CASE. THREE OBITUARIES ENCLOSED FOR THE IDENTIFCATION OF THE PLAYERS. ALSO ARCHIEVED ARE 3 MARKED LATER POST WAR PHOTOS. ONE CABINET CARD IS OF NELSON ANDRUS. THE TWO CDV'S ARE IDENTIFIED AS SAMUEL E ANDRUS AND NELT (WE ASSUME NELSON) ANDRUS.

THE SMALLEST ENCASED TIN TYPE IS IDENTIFIED AS SAMUEL. THE PAIR OF LADIES IS THE AMBROTYPE.

BUT THE CLARITY ON THIS IS INCREDIBLE. THE FAMILY SHOT LOOKS TO BE A COPY BUT A NICE ONE ON PHOTO PAPER. SAMUEL IS CENTER STAGE FLANKED BY THOSE HE LEFT BEHIND ON THIS SHOT.
