Gen. McClelllan Portrait Civil War Cover Postally Used

Civil War Patriotic Cover, With Portrait of Maj. Gen. McClellan, Postmarked N.Y. and addressed to Rochester Depot, Ohio, Very Fine.
This postally used Civil War Patriotic Cover, measuring 2.75" x 5," has a half length portrait of General McClellan, in uniform, to the left (W334). A pair of 3¢ rose stamps (Scott 65) in the upper right is tied by a circular postmark from an unclear town in New York. The envelope is addressed to "Mrs. Joan Welsh - Rochester Depot - Lorain Co. - Ohio." This cover is complete and in good shape, with a strong cancellation. There are stains in the upper left and lower right, and the back has evidence of having been attached to something at one time. RGK 75-491.
