Civil War Soldiers and/or Uniforms

CWTT6. Sixth-plate Tintype of man in studio leaning back on floor with a pick axe in his hand. This came with a slip of paper which reads "Battle of the Crater Veteran." Image is housed in a half leather case and in a mat which reads "Winchester" on the left and "Pollett" on the right. Whether this guy is an actual veteran of the the Battle of the Crater is open to conjecture but if he is not this is a pretty odd tintype. G+. $250

CWTT7. Tintype measuring 3 3/4" x 2 1/2" of Civil War soldier with musket. Bright, shiny "US" on buckle. Clean, sharp image. Housed in preserver and mat with glass, uncased. VG+. $450

CWTT8. Quarter-plate Tintype of a Civil War soldier with his rifle and equipment on his belt. Housed in full leather case. VG. $400

CWTT12. Sixth-plate Tintype of Civil War soldier (or post Civil War soldier) with sword, posed before camp scene backdrop. The odd hat probably makes him just post war but I am not an expert on this. Housed in a half leather case. VG. $300

There are some serious scratches on the right as shown and a bend is seen with raking light. Housed in a half leather case with glass. G-. $650
