Magnificent pose CDV of Henry E. Kinsman, a Vermonter, who enlisted as a 1^st Sgt. in 1861 and eventually promoted to 1^st Lieut. at the end of 1863.  He was wounded on 5/7/64 at the Battle of the Wilderness in Virginia.  Kinsman holds a Sharps rifle with a very interesting Sharp Shooter long-distance sight.  This CDV came out of an album and the album page with ink I.D. stating, “1^st U.S. Sharp Shooters – Sergeant Kinsman of Maine” is included.  The photographer is R. A. Lewis, New York.  The CDV is in excellent condition.
