Addie_JossI recently bought a CDV that was said to be given out to Union Soldiers to carry on themselves during the Civil War. The interesting thing about it, aside from its said origin, is that it pictures 100 Union Soldiers and amongst them is one Abner Doubleday. I believe this is likely the only "card" Doubleday has ever appeard on that was issued" during his lifetime. Do you guys know if there is a viable way of going about authenticating the period piece or finding out when and where a CDV was issued? I haven't got it in my possession yet so I don't have any details on whether or not a manufacturer is listed. I am just generally curious. Also, does SGC or PSA handle CDVs? My guess is probably not.
