Your Advertising Campaign Is in Good Hands with Us

Who we are

Military Images is America’s only magazine solely dedicated to the study of photographs of Civil War soldiers. Established in 1979, our ongoing mission seeks to showcase, interpret and preserve these rare images. The portraits were originally personal, intimate objects never intended for public consumption. Beginning with the centennial of the Civil War, these relics have moved from attics and basements into private and public collections. Today these surviving images are treasured artifacts that tell the story of the United States during our greatest struggle for survival as a nation. Members of MI have access to a mix of analysis, case studies, examinations of material culture and personal stories to gain a unique perspective on human aspects of the war.

Our print edition is quarterly, 80-pages, full-color, and printed on high-quality stock. The content and design are unique to the subject matter—stories you won’t find anywhere else.

Our digital edition has two components. A high-quality replica of the print edition is offered as a PDF file. A digital version is accessible by password for subscribers only.

Our social media presence on Facebook features our main page and Sutler’s Row, which is exclusively for collectors and dealers. On YouTube, you’ll find Life on the Civil War Research Trail, with new episodes every weekday.

Our reach

Our subscriber base is composed of those with an active interest in American history with a focus on the Civil War. It includes an vibrant community of collectors and dealers in historic military photography and other artifacts, researchers and genealogists, re-enactors and living historians, authors and historians, museums, libraries, historical societies, and other public and private institutions. Included in this last group are all the major Civil War-related national historical sites and military parks, and museums.

Our approach to advertising

Considering the many ways we access information in our world, we view Military Images as part of an ecosystem that includes our tradition magazine in print and digital editions, a web site with access to a full digital archive, a dominant social media footprint, and a physical presence at major Civil War Shows. In short, MI goes where the action is—and we take your message and brand with us.
