Civil War Union Generals - Steel Engraving Pub. in 1866

Description

Offered here is an original steel engraving
of Union Generals published
in 1866
.
"Union Generals" is
a grouping of the
engraved images of nine Civil War general officers, centered by Major General William Tecumseh Sherman.   His image is surrounded by those of Maj. Gen. G.H. Thomas, Maj. Gen. J.B. McPherson, Maj. Gen. O.O. Howard, Maj. Gen. E.R.S. Canby, Maj. Gen. W.S. Rosecrans, Maj. Gen. A.H. Terry, Maj. Gen. H.W. Slocum and Maj. Gen. J.M. Schofield
.
The page measures 8 3/4" x 5 3/8" overall with an 7 5/8" x 5" image size
.
This historical engraving was rescued from a falling-apart edition of
The History of the Civil War in America
[etc.] by John S.C. Abbott.
The great skill of the engraver has given the images an almost photographic appearance.
Digital photography doesn't do justice in presenting them.
The page shows natural age toning with some spots of foxing and a small moisture stain (old) on the upper right corner.
The engraving will be safely sent in an acid-free archival sleeve in which it can be stored long-term.
I combine shipping for purchases of two or more engravings.  The shipping charge would remain at .50.
