1/6th Plate Tintype of Ghostly Union Soldier with Fixed Bayonet and Rifle
 
This striking 1/6th plate tintype captures a full-standing Union infantryman with truly a ghostly face. The soldier stands rigidly at attention, rifle held vertically with bayonet fixed, creating an eerie, almost spectral presence.   The image remains in great overall condition with strong tonal contrast. It is housed in a half leatherette case.
