A really neat CDV of the bridge over Bull Run. Across this little stream that was destined to mark the center of the first, and in many respects the most desperate, battle of the Civil War, we see what was left of the bridge after the day had ended in a Federal route. During the route, the little bridge groaned with the weight of the men struggling to get across it. Finally, in frantic haste, it was destroyed by the Federals to delay the dreaded pursuit. Here Federal engineers are rebuilding the bridge to supply the Union army thirty miles south of Washington. Great CDV!

A neat photo of a Civil War period man on a horse with his dog. A nice outdoor CDV. there is no backmark.

A nice but faded CDV of an armed Civil War soldier. He holds his rifle and has a cap box, oval tinted plate, and bayonet. There is no plate on the cartridge box strap. He is wearing a shell jacket but I can't tell which side he is on!

A nice CDV of General Thomas H. Taylor. One of the Confederacy's Western generals. He fought in Kentucky, Vicksburg, Louisiana, and Mobile. The back mark is "Fisher & Denison, Publishers and Stationers, No. 64 Baltimore St. Baltimore". On the front of the CDV is written in period ink " Gen. Dick Taylor". This is misidentified. This photo is clearly of Thomas Taylor not Dick Taylor. It is hard to find Maryland back marks on Confederate general CDVs.

A great CDV of Libbey Prison with military tents outside and civilians with a horse. This photo was taken in 1863 and is one of the few Confederate outdoor photogrphic shots. The CDV has a Chas. H. Schwamb, Annapolis, Md. backmark. On the back is written in ink "Libby Prison - Richmond - For Johney - Keep it clean". A really great CDV with a Maryland backmark.

A nice early CDV of Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard. He was responsible for firing on Fort Sumter and 1st Bull Run. This is a very nice full standing CDV of a Confederate general. The backmark is a Boston backmark.

A great CDV of an Union armed rifleman. The soldier is full standing and has a rifleman's belt buckle. There is no backmark.

A great armed Union CDV! The infantry man in this photo has everything - cap box, eagle buckle plate, eagle plate, boots and rifle.

This cdv is titled "Bastion Opposite Battery No.2 of General McClellan's Works - Brady's Album Gallery, No. 392". You can see the Yorktown entrenchments, a Union soldier, sandbags, and a cannon and limber in the background.
