Original 1860's CDV photograph of former President of the United States Martin Van Buren. Taken by the most famous photographer of the era, Matthew Brady and stamped on the back, this is one of only a small number of originals that exists and this one bears a cool ink identification on the front as well. The photo portion is perfect while the corners are clipped on this example, it still is a Civil War era specimen and one of the earliest President to pose for an actual photograph!
