Civil War Era Soldier Drummer Ambrotype w Gutta Percha Case SOLD AS IS   Civil War Era Soldier Drummer Ambrotype w Gutta Percha Case SOLD AS IS
Civil War Era Soldier Drummer Ambrotype w Gutta Percha Case - AS IS. This old ambrotype (photo on glass) is of a Civil War era soldier in a uniform with a drum and drumsticks. It came from an older private estate. I do not know the uniform so I cannot say if he is Union or Confederate. The case and photo are in very bad shape Please view ALL the photos.

Approx case size: 3 3/4" x 3 1/4". Condition: The ambrotype has stains, loss, wear and scratches on it. See photo scan and camera photos.

The gilt inner trim and frame are there but the upper right corner of the gilt holder is not intact. It looks like all the pieces are there and it might be able to be repaired. The left hand part of the case that the picture fits into is broken along the edge where the hinges were, The right hand case is not broken and has it's velvet liner but it may have a few tiny nicks.

I have another sale up right now that shows the same young man in a different uniform that looks more like a Union soldier's.
