Inscribed CDV of Gen. U.S. Grant

Scarce and desirable “from life” carte-de-visite (CDV) portrait of General Ulysses S. Grant by Anthony, from a photographic negative by Matthew Brady. This particular view of a seated General Grant is uncommon to find. Inscribed “U.S. Grant” in Civil War-period ink, a lovely touch. Condition is near mint.
