Tintype of Civil War Soldier- Painted Backdrop

Rare CDV-sized (4 x 2.5 inches) tintype of an armed Civil War soldier standing at attention. The subject stands before a painted military backdrop featuring a cannon and red-tinted American flag. Image is housed in a nice thermoplastic case- a difficult example to find for the unusual sized image.
