[CIVIL WAR]. Tintype of Private Oliver W. Inskeep, Company F, 30th Iowa Regiment, with musket and fixed bayonet.
2 1/2 x 3 1/8 in. tintype. (Image a bit dark, but clarity and contrast remain very good.) Housed under mat, glass, and preserver only, no case (partially sealed to mat with foil tape). A standing view of Inskeep holding his musket and fixed bayonet, with a bayonet scabbard on his belt. His oval US buckle is tinted gold. Accompanied by a later family identification, with both written and typed notes, listing Inskeep and other members of the family who were originally from Ohio.
