Photographic War History. The War For The Union. 1861-1865. No. 6285. Artillery Captured from the Rebels. This entire park of artillery is made up of cannon and cassions [sic] captured from the Rebel army. It is “parked” near the “Rocketts” in Richmond, and is waiting to be shipped north. Many of these same cannon have been used, since the war, in making the Grand Army Badges which are now worn by comrades of the great Order. [Taylor & Huntington stereo card]
