A pair of sixth plate tintypes depicting unidentified Civil War soldiers, each shown in uniform and housed in a full leatherette case. Both images present single male subjects posed in studio settings, wearing dark military coats with brass buttons and regulation caps bearing small metallic insignia. The photographic process is tintype, consistent with mid-19th-century wartime portraiture, and the scale and presentation indicate sixth plate format.

In each portrait, the soldier is seated and posed in a composed, formal manner typical of studio work during the Civil War period. One sitter rests an arm on a support or chair back, while the other holds his hands together at mid-torso, both gazing directly at the camera. The uniforms are plain and unadorned beyond standard buttons and cap devices, offering no visible unit identification. No weapons or additional equipment are present in these views, emphasizing the personal, commemorative nature of the portraits rather than a martial display.

Both tintypes are set behind oval mats with embossed patriotic or floral motifs, paired with decorative brass mats and housed in full cases. The cases feature contrasting velvet or fabric liners and stamped metal surrounds consistent with Civil War-era production. No photographer’s imprint or identifying text is visible on either example.
