Description: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Original hand signed 1862 “One Dollar” North Carolina currency issued from Raleigh. The note is printed on one side and has the hand inscribed serial number “1304”. The note was printed by “J.T. Paterson & Co. Augusta, Ga.” with a plain back. Original Federal and Confederate ammunition excavated from the Civil War Battlefields around Fredericksburg, Virginia. They are representative of ammunition used by both sides during the fighting at Fort Fisher. The lead ammunition at left are all Federal issue; a .44 Army Model revolver, a .52 Sharps carbine generally used by the cavalry branch of service and a .58 round for the Springfield rifle or other imported arms of that caliber. The lead ammunition at right are; a .69 Musket ball used by both sides, a Federal issue for the .52 Spencer carbine and a Confederate issue .58 Gardner made at the Richmond Arsenal in Virginia. The Spencer used a brass cartridge the others used a paper cartridge which has not survived in the ground. The white color or patina is due to oxidation in the ground. The battle scene “Battle of Fort Fisher” was reprinted from a lithograph done by Prang. Louis Prang, from Boston, was the most prolific and influential publisher of American chromolithographs. Born in Germany, Prang learned to print in color from his father, a calico printer. In 1850, the younger Prang immigrated to the United States for political reasons. He set up his own firm of L. Prang & Co. in 1860. The series of Civil War scenes were done in the 1886-88 period. The hand made solid Walnut frame is 12” x 16” (glass) in size. All of the frame and display work was done in our cabinet shop here in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The frame is ready to hang. The wire is recessed which allows the frame to rest flat back to the wall as in a museum mount. The “bumpons” on each back corner protect the wall and keep the frame level. All of the artifacts are guaranteed to be original as stated. A hand signed and dated “Certificate of Authenticity” will be issued by Collectors Frame with a photograph and description of the items purchased. Any other literature shown will come with the frame. Please see our "About” for more information on the framing and artifacts.
