Abstract:
Civil War carte de visite collection featuring 98 identified men from Company E of the 16th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment. The carte de visites, roughly the size of business cards, have a small oval photographs showing bust views of the men wearing sackcoats without hats. These photographs display the range in age and appearance among these men, some of the first to enlist in the company. Included are a majority of enlisted men along with several officers. Also in the collection is one unidentified carte de visite of a man, possibly of Company E, wearing a similar coat but with a hat.
