Lot of 2 CDVs of William Pope Anderson, nephew of General Robert Anderson including a seated studio portrait of Anderson as a sergeant in the 6th Ohio Infantry, fully outfitted with gear, plus a wedding photograph of Anderson as captain and assistant adjutant general with his wife dressed in her wedding gown and a large American flag draped behind them. Latter carte with the backmark of Hoag & Quicks, Cincinnati. This is one of only two or three uniformed wedding photographs that we have encountered in nearly 20 years of business. William Pope Anderson (1840-1897) enlisted as a corporal in his hometown of Cincinnati on 4/21/61, and mustered into Co. A, 6th OVI. He was promoted twice with his first three-and-a-half months of service and served as a second lieutenant during the 6th's service at Shiloh and Corinth before earning a commission as captain in the Adjutant Generals Department on 11/28/62. Pope resigned 3/18/64, and was honored with a brevet to major in the omnibus awards of 1865. Condition: First very good, with only very light soiling and corner wear. Wedding photo with the same, but also a small cluster of light stains at middle right.
