A very nice photo of General Cullum in uniform. Three-quarter seated view. He is seen with regulation double-breasted frock with shoulder straps, officer’s sword belt, sword in lap, and a cape or overcoat possibly draped off his back shoulder. Perfect clarity and contrast. Typical ruled mount that shows no wear or damage. Signed in ink at bottom. E. Anthony backmark. Very nice.
