A good war-date CDV of Chief Justice Roger B. Taney (1777-1864) who in one of his most controversial cases decided that runaway slave Dred Scott was not a man in possession of his own body, and who after running away, he deprived his master of corporeal production. A rare image of the Justice Taney in his justice's robes by Gurney, New York City. Overall VG.
