Yellow card mount is 3.5x7” missing upper right corner. Margins have pair of small and quite faint moisture marks and 1/8” dia. hairline around spot of surface paper at lower right but yellow color remains intact. The scene shows forest in bkg. with visible breastworks of logs. In the foreground are about 8-10 bodies. Caption stamped on right lower margin is “Dead On Culp’s Hill.” Card reverse has stamp of noted battlefield photographer. A few letters are faint but this reads “Mumper & Co./Photo/Artists, 25 Baltimore St. Gettysburg, Pa.” Below is inked “No. 322” next to stamped title “Dead On Culp’s Hill.” In addition, neatly written long ago in pencil is a brief description of the battle (probably events of July 2nd, 1863) that reads; “Gen. Wadsworth Division Of The Twelfth Corps Held This Position. At One Time It Was Held By The Rebs Under Gen. Johnson While Our Troops Were Reinforcing The Left Of Our Line On Their Return Seeing The Enemy In Their Entrenchment They Made A Dash And Sent Them Back Across Rock Creek Within Their Lines, With Great Loss.” Culp’s Hill was a critical part of the Union defense line. Over the three Days of battle July 1-3, 1863 some 2,800 Confederate attackers and 1,000 Union defenders perished at this location. The area became a prime tourist attraction after the battle as it was close to town. The extreme fire power decimated the wooded area and it took twenty years before nature hid the battle scars.
