Surgeon W.B. Crandall, listed with the 16th New York Infantry, appears on this wet collodion glass negative, a process that required plates to be exposed while still damp. The record dates it to 1860, which predates the war, so the date and the regimental title should be read with caution, since the title is noted as unverified. David B. Woodbury, who died in 1866, made the plate, and the scratched number 2156 on its surface is an annotation from the Library of Congress's Civil War glass negative collection.
