Auction Details
Printed & Manuscript Americana
The highlight of our September Americana auction will be a large archive of family papers of Gideon Welles, who served as secretary of the Navy through the Civil War. Included are his letters to his son regarding the Lincoln assassination and Andrew Johnson?s impeachment, four of his pre-war diaries, and more. A few related artifacts will be offered separately, among them a pass to Lincoln?s funeral at the White House, and an engraving of Lincoln, inscribed by the artist to Welles.
