Item Details

Description

Historic Ulysses S. Grant Autograph Letter Signed "U. S. Grant/ Maj. Gen." from Nashville, Dated February 28, 1864. This important ALS order reads, "To Brig Gen. R. Allen, Louisville, Ky. It will be impossible to supply the number of Artillery & Cavalry horses called for within this Military Division, but I would suggest that now all on hand be forwarded as rapidly as possible to this places and others be procured as fast as they can be purchased. I will order their distribution from here." Exemplifies Grant's aggressive "hands on" style of command for which he was noted, and issued just nine days before he would be promoted to lieutenant general, the highest rank in the US Army. Pristine condition, bright and crisp, some pencil notations at the bottom, significance unknown. An historically interesting and eminently displayable Grant document.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:57135
