This is an original Civil War era CDV image of Civil War Brevet Brigadier General Henry Clarke Corbin. During the Civil War, Fuller served in the 83rd Ohio Infantry as a 2nd Lieutenant. Later, as 1st Lieutenant of the 79th Ohio Infantry. When there was a demand for officers to be in charge of the black regiments, he served as Colonel of the 14th United States Colored Troops. He received his promotion to brevet Brigadier General on March 13th 1865, for his faithful and meritorious services. When we say he is a "Brevet" Brigadier General this means that because of his service to the country he was awarded the rank as an honor. This is a bust view of the general in a stately pose. The CDV images were made by applying a thin paper photo image of the famous person of the day to a heavier paper card. This made the image more durable and easier to display and also added uniformity to the size. On the back of the card it has the photographer Mark from Cincinnati, Ohio of Hogue & Quick's Art Palace. The overall size of a CDV image is approximately 2.5 inches by 4 inches in size. This is a solid original Civil War Union CDV image.
