Grant and Schuyler Colfax presidential campaign cover -- military war theme. ABOUT this specific envelope's graphic image.

A relatively rare 1868 Ulysses S. Grant and Schuyler Colfax presidential campaign cover. Civil War-era and immediate post-war covers (envelopes) featuring Ulysses S. Schuyler Colfax are highly collectible items of American postal history, particularly those.

Relating to the 1868 Republican campaign. Campaign covers functioned as traveling advertisements during election seasons. Postal History: This cover features manuscript cancellation: Berkshire, Vermont. This type of postal expression had never been used to any extent prior to the Civil War. Featuring strong graphic images, these covers expressed patriotic and propagandistic messages. Common images include flags, eagles, soldiers, and portraits and caricatures of famous Civil War figures and others. ABOUT CONDITION: Most of my Civil War Covers are in "NICE" condition, BUT see scans! While'NICE' means different things to different folks, to the expert and author William R.

A'NICE' envelope means no facial damage that detracts from the overall appearance. Flaws which might detract could include tears larger than 1/2 inch, stains, creases, reductions. REVERSE flaws will generally NOT detract from value unless a portion is cut out. Some minor paper discoloration or reverse flaws such as old mounting evidence or paper. Adhesions will not detract from value.

- Catalog of Union Civil War Patriotic Covers - Weiss. Many items in this collection represent the raw ugliness of historical bigotry and American wartime propaganda. We offer these sometimes shocking listings especially for advanced collectors, museums and academic buyers for the purpose of documenting American racial history and radical ideologies; these items serve as historical evidence, not endorsement. These circa 160+ year-old Civil War period covers do not come from a casual collection - this is research-grade material. Many of these items are much scarcer than generic patriotic designs.

These envelopes represent exceptional Civil War patriotic material, including imaginative allegorical and satirical designs, patriotic tropes and parody, documentation of 19th Century social, political and cultural movements, rabid nationalism, slavery and abolitionist sentiments, racist imagery, and wartime propaganda.
