Description

John S. Mosby Image With Autograph Note Signed, "Jno. S. Mosby". This unique pairing consists of an albumen print, 4" x 3.75", framed with an explanatory note in Mosby's hand measuring 3.75" x 3". It reads, "Copy of a daguerreotype taken in Charlottesville when I was student at the University - or soon after I left there: I am wearing the badge of the Washington Society." Both items are matted and framed to an overall size of 12" x 14". Light aging and stains, else good condition. Confederate Colonel John Singleton Mosby won enduring fame by raiding deeply into Federal-held territory from early 1863 until war's end. A lawyer by trade, Mosby had attended the University of Virginia until being expelled for shooting another student!
