Civil War FULL PLATE Tintype - Bvt. Brig. General Robert N. Adams - 81st Ohio Infantry

NOTICE

********NOW OPERATING FROM OUR NEW HEADQUARTERS ********



Now fully operational from the beautiful Pacific North West, we encourage all to keep a close eye as we unpack posted offerings and continue what will be an ongoing effort of unpacking the collection while taking stock with an eye toward thinning out our accumulation of treasures. After years of seeking out and acquiring all manner of quality antique Americana from simple but seldom surviving items of special interest to historically important treasures, Janet and I look forward to offering the fruits of our years of seeking out such to new and appreciative homes.

Best described here by our illustrations as to condition and eye appeal, this period hand painted, whole plate tintype, depicts Bvt. Brig. General Robert Newton Adams earlier in the Civil War as Captain Co. C 81st Ohio Infantry. The photo is identifiable by google AI photo search, a copy of which will come with the image. { Drag tintype facial closeup (see site 2nd image) into the google photo search box then click AI Mode.}
Civil War Union Bvt. Brig. Gen, Robert N. Adams first entered his Civil War service when he enlisting in the 20th Ohio (Three-Month) Volunteer Infantry on April 18, 1961 and was mustered in as a Private in Company B. He was mustered out on August 18, 1861 when his enlistment expired. Shortly after that he received a commission as a Captain of Volunteers, and was mustered in as Captain in command of Company C, 81st Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment on August 30, 1861. Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel before the year was out (December 1, 1861), his regiment went on to fight in the Battles of Shiloh and Corinth, in operations in northern Alabama, and in the 1864 Atlanta Campaign. He was promoted to Colonel on August 8, 1864 and was brevetted Brigadier General, US Volunteers on March 13, 1865 for "meritorious services during the war". He was mustered out on July 13, 1865 at Louisville, Kentucky.
Illustrated here in our main view in its period mat and walnut frame (to include period original wavy glass) as well as raw and out of its mount to better show off detail, this scarce 6 ½ X 8 ½ inch whole plate tintype will make a pleasing addition to any quality Civil War photo collection and will be of special interest to the Ohio Civil War collector.
