Up for sale is a RARE SUPPLEMENT TO FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED NEWS APRIL 5, 1862 CIVIL WAR IN NORTH CAROLINA. Searching the internet I was not able to find a copy of this anywhere, maybe because it is 168 years old and was a folded centerfold which could be easily destroyed or lost. This measures approximately 45-1/2" long by 16-1/4". Amazingly there is no major damage. There are three folds making four pages and a few other folds and nicks but it is all there after all this time. The title at the bottom reads"THE
WAR IN NORTH CAROLINA - THE BATTLE OF NEWBERNE - FINAL AND SUCESSFUL CHARGE OF THE NATIONAL TROOPS UNDER GENERAL BURNSIDE ON THE REBEL FORTIFICATIONS, THEIR CAPTURE AND UTTER ROUT OF THE REBEL ARMY, MARCH 14
- From A SKETCH BY OUR SPECIAL ARTIST, MR. SCHELL." This original would be a spectacular piece, framed and hung in a den or office. This will be shipped folded and double boxed for protection as I believe it is a museum worthy piece. Please view all the pictures and ask all questions before bidding. Thanks for looking!!
