DOUBLE ARMED CIVIL WAR SOLDIER AMBROTYPE PISTOL REVOLVER RIFLE

Ambrotypes are unique positive photographs on glass. Ambrotypes of Civil War soldiers are much more scarce than tintypes. Here is one with a fully equipped Civil War soldier. Note: this may be an ambrotype of an ambrotype, as there appears to be a mat visible within the photograph.
