Photograph

Title: Tipton's Gettysburg Groups [reunion photograph of Green's 3rd Brigade, 12 Corps], Gettysburg, PA. [Late 19th-early 20th Cent. ca.]

Large group of old veterans wearing civilian clothes and ribbons posed in a wooded area [probably Culp's Hill]. A sign on the center tree reads: "Green's 3rd Brigade, 12 Corps." Part of an old recruitment [?] broadside hangs beneath the sign. A man standing center holds a 12th Corps flag. A wooden stake in the ground in front of the group has the number "100" written on it. There also appears to be a small boulder in front of the men. Tipton's imprint notes him as "The Battlefield Photographer, Gettysburg, Pa." The number "340" was scratched into the negative and printed on the image.
