Here is a nice original Civil War CDV image of President Abraham Lincoln. This is a nice engraving style CDV image of the President from the chest up. Many of this style were purchased just after his assassination to honor Lincoln. These CDV images were purchased by people at home to see what the famous persons of the day that they read about in the paper looked like. The left hand side of the paper is marked "Potters Patent, March 7, 1865.” This one is a nice clear image and it displays well from all angles.
