Very Unusual Civil War Patriotic Tintype of a Boy Dressed as General U.S. Grant

Very Unusual Tintype of a Boy Dressed as General U.S. Grant. His posture, accuracy of uniform details, clever fake beard and mustache and the ever-present cigar all make a valid case that this boy has actually seen a photograph of Grant taken by Matthew Brady. A very rare depiction of a young man's obsession with his war time hero. Image and case in excellent condition.
