Item Details
Description
George Pickett Bold Signature with Rank, Handsomely Displayed
A paper fragment signed and inscribed by one of the most elusive of Confederate Generals, George E. Pickett (1825-1875). The blue-ruled paper slip is signed "G.E. Pickett / Maj Genl / C.S.A." and mounted below an image of Pickett in his Confederate uniform. The paper fragment has expected light folds and some ragged edges, else near fine. Matted to a completed size of 6.25" x 10.25."
Pickett autographs are among the scarcest of Confederate generals. Pickett participated in numerous Civil War engagements, though his role in the eponymous Confederate assault at the Battle of Gettysburg is certainly the most well-known. "Pickett's Charge" against Union lines entrenched along Cemetery Ridge on July 3, 1863 resulted in horrific carnage. Over 50% of Pickett's division was killed, wounded, or missing/captured.
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.
