Friends, I am seeking suitably clear period photos of Federal subdued rank placement please. I am placing major insignia (two oak leaves/not four) on a late war frock.
Appreciate the leads.

"Who wouldn't gladly risk his life in arduous service on the Texas coast? Show me the man who wouldn't, and I'll shoot him.
