Scott Winfield

Winfield Scott ALS Written 2 Years after his 3rd and Last Unsuccessful Presidential Bid

1p ALS inscribed overall and signed by career military officer Winfield Scott (1786-1866) as "Yrs. respectfully, Winfield Scott." Written in New York City on April 22, 1854. On watermarked cream stationery paper, probably originally bifold (as suggested by the deckled edge of the left margin) but now a single page. With expected light paper folds, and minor discoloration to the left edge. Some glue residue verso, else near fine. 4.5" x 7.125".

Scott rather gruffly apologized to an autograph-seeker named F.A. Palmer, Esquire. He wrote: "I can, but very rarely, find time to acknowledge applications for my autograph, + with that apology for my delay, I remain Yrs. respectfully, Winfield Scott."

Aging military commander Winfield Scott lived in a 4-story brownstone at 24 West 12th Street in the Greenwich Village section of Lower Manhattan between 1853-1855. The building is now a U.S. National Historical Landmark, and on the National Register of Historic Places.

Scott was a soldier's soldier. Over his fifty-four-year long military career, "Old Fuss and Feathers" served in the War of 1812, the Seminole Wars, the Black Hawk War, the Mexican-American War, and the Civil War. Scott witnessed, experienced, and participated in many major military events of American history: he was a British prisoner of war in 1812; he supervised the forced removal of the Cherokee; he served as military governor of Mexico City; and he implemented the highly successful blockade of Southern port cities during the War Between the States.

Although his reputation was primarily military, Scott also had political ambitions. Scott had run for U.S. President in 1840, 1848, and 1852. After losing the 1852 presidential race to 14th U.S. President Franklin Pierce, Scott set aside his political aspirations and lobbied for a retroactive military promotion instead, which he received in 1853.
