Most of the cards’ backs feature a standard Tipton’s Canteen Series list with the subject of each photo underlined. However, #7 Looking from Little Round Top towards Devil’s Den (which has a typo of an extra “o” on the other cards) features an ad for “A National Paper From The National Capitol” called “The Canteen” for 25 cents a year. The Canteen featured illustrations, poems and war songs advertised as “Good, pure and true in all its Contents.”

Each card measures 6.5” wide by 4.25” tall in landscape position.
