Carte de visite. Unidentified Civil War soldier. Written on back: "From others in this series I would say this Jameson photographed before and during the Civil War. George A. Hyers occupied same studio after Jameson, but before 1870. Hyers was followed by W. F. Stein in same location. I have 2 photos printed on back 'Photographed by Geo. A. Hyers, front St. above Locust, Columbia, Pa.' They show the same curtain and decorations as this one, but are the later half of 1860s decade."
