In Carrollton, Georgia is Horton's Books, the oldest bookstore in Georgia which was founded in 1891. I was walking around in there this past weekend and their top shelf has old pictures that the lady who owns the store says were found either in old books or were with the building when she bought it (they moved from one side of the square to the other years ago).
I saw this and asked if she minded if I took a picture of it with my phone. She said "Not at all, but are you sure you didn't just want to buy it? Its only $12.
...I bought it
It caught my attention because the guy is wearing almost the exact jacket, trousers, and hat as my reenacting kit.
Also, his coat matches the coat worn by Capt. Christopher Columbus Thompson of the 16th Georgia (@lelliott19) in his image.
I'd love to know who he is, or at least where he was from.
