Attractive and little-worn Civil War–era linen shirt that has a pleated front, balloon sleeves, and very short cuffs. The material is fine, with virtually no wear, although there are some dark stains on the front of the shirt and around the neck. All of the buttons are still in place, including the small buttons for attaching a collar at the neck.
Provenance: Collection of noted Civil War collector John Ockerbloom, Amoskeag Auction, August 7, 2004.
