Fabulous U.S. Grant Signature & Brady Engraved Portrait
U.S. Grant signature on a cream-colored card mounted to a larger sheet, 3.5" x 1.25." Boldly signed as "U.S. Grant." Evidence of prior mounting on verso, very visually appealing and ready for framing.
Fantastic portrait 13.25" x 11.25", of Gen. Grant after the famous Brady image taken in 1864. Mounted on albumen paper. Slight toning, foxing, some minor tears and dealer's notes in pencil on verso.
In 1865, as commanding general, Ulysses S. Grant led the Union Armies to victory over the Confederacy in the American Civil War. As an American hero, Grant was later elected the 18th President of the United States (1869–1877), working to implement Congressional Reconstruction and remove the vestiges of slavery.
This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
