Unidentified Soldier In Union Corporal's Uniform Holding Company B, 15th New Hampshire Volunteers Kepi (U.S. Civil War) STICKER Vinyl Die-Cut Decal

A sepia photograph of a bearded young soldier in a Union corporal's uniform, seated with his kepi resting on his lap.

Visual Elements & Composition

Sepia grey covers most of the image, with antique gold in the highlights and dark slate in the shadowed uniform. Dusky rose and pale cream soften the face and the background. The seated soldier holds the kepi on his knee, its eagle badge and lettering turned toward the viewer, and the chevron stripes on his sleeve mark his rank. The rounded window frame and the rectangular case around the picture give the photograph its period form, a tintype or ambrotype with a quiet, close composition.

Meaning & Symbolism

The kepi is the emblem of the soldier's unit, Company B of the 15th New Hampshire Volunteers, and the badge and lettering on it record the regiment he served in. The chevrons show his rank as a corporal in the Union Army. Portraits like this were made for families and for the men themselves, and they preserve the regimental identity and the dignity of an ordinary soldier of the Civil War.

A Regimental Kepi on a Sticker

The kepi and the seated figure form a compact group, so a die-cut sticker can follow the outline of the soldier and his cap to keep the regimental emblem at the centre of the piece. Its sepia and gold tones suit a quiet, historical image on a journal, a notebook or a laptop lid, where the badge and the chevrons can be read up close.

Die-cut vinyl decals: precision-cut shapes on premium water-resistant vinyl with a matte laminate and UV protection — built to resist sun, rain and everyday wear for long-lasting use.

These die-cut decals are trimmed exactly to the design, producing crisp edges and a professional finish. They’re made from thick, water-resistant vinyl and finished with a matte UV laminate that reduces glare while protecting colors from fading.

The production process uses eco-solvent inks for dense, even color and a protective overlaminate that helps the decal survive outdoor exposure. Rated for multi-year outdoor life when applied to the right surface, these decals give a clean, matte look without sacrificing durability.

  • Material: premium water-resistant vinyl engineered for weather resistance.
  • Finish: matte laminate that mutes shine and guards against scratches.
  • Print: eco-solvent inks for solid blacks and vivid color depth.
  • Protection: UV laminate extends outdoor life and helps prevent fade.
  • Longevity: rated to last multiple years outdoors under normal conditions.

Die-cut decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, metal, coated plastics and finished wood. They work well on bottles, windows, laptops and vehicle windows for short- to medium-term outdoor use.

  1. Prep the surface: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth; for residue use mild soap and water and allow to dry fully.
  2. Peel and position: lift a corner of the liner, align the decal and lay it down slowly, pressing from the center outward.
  3. Seal: smooth the edges with a card or your thumb to ensure full contact and reduce trapping air.

Note: to keep adhesive performance in wet conditions, apply decals to very smooth surfaces (for example: glass). Avoid rough or heavily textured materials where the adhesive can’t form a full bond.

Maintenance is low-effort. Gently wipe decals with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp microfiber and light pressure will clean the surface — dry immediately afterward.

Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents or power washers; these can scratch the laminate or lift edges. Proper care preserves the matte finish and keeps colors vivid for longer.

Sizes are specified by the longest side. For example, a 4″ decal measures four inches across its greatest dimension. The die-cut follows the artwork’s contour so the decal sits flush with clean, professional edges.

Small variations can occur with intricate outlines, but the listed measurement always reflects the maximum edge-to-edge length for accurate placement planning.
