CIVIL WAR SIXTH PLATE CASED IMAGE OF JEFFERSON DAVIS ON GLASS, This is an interesting image we have not seen before which appears to be a photographic copy of cased engraving of Jefferson Davis as circulated early in the Confederacy. Contrast and detail are excellent. There is some flaking to emulsion at top and top right quadrant that do not currently affect the bust of Davis. Image is housed in a paper veneered sixth plate case with thin gilt edge protector. SIZE: 3-1/2" x 3-1/4". CONDITION: Good as described above, case has scuffs and hinges broken 49339-13 (300-500) JS0
