This is a carte de visite (CDV) photograph of a Confederate officer. This is a bust view with only the collar and top buttons of the frock coat visible. This “head shot” is clear with good contrast. The image is pasted to a typical ruled mount. Some light soiling overall.
On the back is the photographer’s imprint in red ink. “New Orleans / Photographic Co. / 57 Camp St. / A.A. Turner, Photo.” There is an original identification penciled on the back at top edge. Unfortunately, the first name is mostly rubbed and worn away. The remainder appears readable, being “___ M. Avery.” A previous collector (Bill Turner) has written “Jon Avery” below. No Confederate soldiers (officers) can be conclusively identified as this man.
From the Bill Turner and Ray Richie collections. [jet][ph:L]
