Description

The picture is about 8 x 4 3/4 inches. The writing under the picture is "A Neil NY, LT GEN. LONGSTREET, From a Photograph taken from life,
C.B. Richardson, Publisher" The engraved picture is on quality older paper and does not show any age spots only minor light discoloration ends of the paper. Please enlarge to see picture the winner will be receiving. See further comments on the picture below.

Questions & Comments

This is NOT a modern reproduction. The picture is on old quality paper from the late 19th century. If framed, it is best to be sure to use acid free mounting materials to insure it maintaining it's historical quality. I inherited this and other Civil War era engravings from an aunt who passed away in the 1960's.

Gen. Longstreet disagreed with Gen. Lee on tactics at Gettysburg but followed orders. After the war, Longstreet worked for the election of U.S. Grant for President and successful diplomat. He today is considered one of the best Southern generals.
