An equestrian portrait of Major General George Gordon Meade looking out over the battlefield at Gettysburg where the Union army under his direction won one of its greatest battles, defeating Confederate General Robert E. Lee. He holds a pair of binoculars in his right hand and his hat in his left hand. A sword hangs from the left side of his saddle. The horse featured is Meade's favorite horse, Old Baldy. This photograph, by William H. Tipton, appears to have been made before a bronze plaque was attached to the right side of the base (although a bronze plaque on the front of the base appears to be present). Other photographs taken of veterans at the monument show the plaque in place at the time of the Great Reunion. A photograph of the model for the Meade statue was also made by Tipton. The statue was sculptured in 1895 by Henry K. Bush-Brown, (1857-1935), and the monument cost $37,500. The statue stands across the battlefield from the statue of General Robert E. Lee. – Compiled: SIRS, Gettysburg National Military Park William H. Tipton (photographer) (1850–1929) was a noted American photographer of the second half of the 19th Century, most noted for his extensive early photography of the Gettysburg Battlefield and the borough of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

Yours for half a crown (i.e. 2/6)

Irish Independent - Thursday 06 August 1896 - but it was advertised extensively until about 1914 (still 2/6)
Several articles in following years quote it, until the late 1920s, even though one quote is prefaced: "The otherwise very reliable and excellent little Dictionary of Dublin says: [etc etc]" (Weekly Freeman's Journal - Saturday 05 December 1914)
The word on the street is that National Library of Ireland on The Commons has a copy
(Evening Irish Times - Monday 26 May 1913) -

Number 24 not only has the Gunpowder Office but also the big sign advertising the photographery business Chancellors, who advertised their Movable Boudoir to convey Sitters to the Galleries. Nothing else of interest at all in picture 24.
