Description
RARE WAR-DATE SIGNED GENERAL GEORGE B. MCCLELLAN CDV. Rare War date signed McClellan CDV, Anthony-Brady back photographers imprint. George B. McClellan, Civil War General, 1864 Democratic Presidential Candidate, Governor of New Jersey. Boldly signed on the front mount "Geo McClellan Maj. Gen. USA." This Civil War carte was given to the New York Metropolitan Sanitary Fair in April of 1864 to be sold to raise money for sick and wounded Union Soldiers. The CDV comes with the original album page from a New York Sanitary Fair collection, and the original red string that held it in place. The page has two slits for the bottom corners of the CDV to rest in. The piece is in overall fine condition having just two tiny pinholes at the top of the mount for the red string, and having the bottom two corners of the mount bent to slide into the page. A superb presentation that would look great framed. Signed CDV’s donated to the New York Sanitary Fair are prohibitively rare!
