1860's Civil War Union Officer Signed Albumen Cdv Photograph / Photo #2 For Sale
Original, 1860's, Signed and Inscribed, CDV Photograph of Union Civil War Lieutenant James F, Bennett of the 3rd Regiment, Colorado Infantry and Acting Adjutant General of the Department of the Missouri. This outstanding, period, albumen Photograph measures approx. 2 1/4” by 3 5/8” and is mounted on its original, square corner, CDV Card Mount (card measures approx 2 1/2" by 4"). The portrait is signed and inscribed at the bottom "Yours Truly / J. F. Bennett / a.a.g.". The Card Mount is blank backed and the Image is unsigned by the photographer.
The Photograph is a full figure portrait of Bennett wearing a 3/4 length, frock coat with cape over. He stands next to an upholstered side chair in a photographer’s studio and wears a kepi with a wreath insignia lettering that we cannot decipher.
This rare and wonderful CDV Photograph is in excellent condition. The Image exhibits sharp focus, strong contrast and rich tonality. The Photograph itself is clean and crisp with some VERY light mottling to the blank area in the upper corners. The card mount is also clean and crisp with sharp corners and little wear of any kind. The signature and inscription is dark and bold with an ink smudge on the lower loop of the capital “J” (which occurred at the time the card was signed).
A very rare and very attractive, Signed and Inscribed, CDV Photograph of Civil War Union Lieut. James F. Bennett and a fantastic addition to any collection!!

Important Notes about Shipping Charges:
The amount quoted for Shipping & Handling is calculated by and is equal to the EXACT amount charged by the Post Office plus a $1.00 "packing fee" - the $1.00 fee is our only compensation for the virgin packing materials we use on all of our professionally packaged boxes as well as our cost for the salaried help that does most of our packing - as I am sure you can see, we make NO profit on the Shipping charges and, in fact, our costs are usually greater than the $1.00 fee. Please contact us if there are any issues regarding the cost of shipping.
