OT - Unusual Uniform on Tintype
 

Posted By: <b>Rob L</b><p>Hello all,<br /><br />Just curious if any of the 19th Century BB Card collectors and afficiandos have seen this type of uniform before. This is a c1870 Tintype with a half-bib/shield uniform. Anyone seen these before?<br /><br />Rob Loeffler<br /><br /><img src="http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/3520/c1870tintypeplayerwithanaonbib.jpg">
