Milsurp After Hours

The first use of color film during the Civil War.................

Also notice placement of CSA flag, guess that's what happens when you
come in 2nd place in a war.........

And now days you wouldn't use the US flag for a tablecloth either.

I thought for sure someone would question the use of color film in the Civil War, since there
really wasn't any. It was obviously colored later, like all the colored photos of that war.

Ok..so which one of these is correct?

The actual Black and White one because beginning in the 1880s, sepia was produced by adding a pigment, called sepia, made from the Sepia officinalis cuttlefish found in the English channel , to the positive print of a photograph. This image is from much earlier.
Actual colour photographs were not a serious possibility until C1898 .

A circa 1850 "Hillotype" photograph of a colored engraving.
Long believed to be a complete fraud, recent testing found that Levi Hill's process did reproduce some color photographically, but also that many specimens had been "sweetened" by the addition of hand-applied colors.

Yup, I read the same WIKI that Duncan did................
