SOLD ITEM 3108 - Antique Civil War Document for Package Express

There are 1 images of this item.

Civil War Collectors-here is an antique document that reflects the daily life of the Civil War soldier. It is a receipt, dated 5 December 1862 in Middletown, Connecticut, and issued by the Adams Express Company's Army and Soldiers Package Express. The receipt is for shipment of one box from Middletown to Washington, DC. The interesting part of this old document is in the fine print. The company promises only to get the package to a convenient point near the destination where it will be turned over to third parties for delivery to the consignee or the "Quartermaster or other officer of the regiment to which the consignee is attached." Disclaimers of liability follow. War was close to home in those days. Still-where were UPS and Federal Express when you needed them? The piece is approximately 8 and one quarter inches wide by 5 inches high. It has been framed for your enjoyment, and the overall dimensions are approximately 10 and three quarters inches by 8 and three quarters inches. Condition is excellent with no chips or tears. There are creases, as the recipient obviously folded the receipt to put it in his pocket, just as we would today. This is a fine piece of Americana, taken from the darkest hour of the country's history. If you wish to browse our entire available inventory please go to OneofaKindAntiques.com.

"Thanks so much for the appraisal - our curiosity has now been satisfied. For the last 4 years, since purchasing the home, we have often wondered the value. Have a wonderful week." - Ryan and Lesley H

"Thank you so much... I have a similar table, in not as good of condition... it has a minor split and a ring from a hot plate.... I am considering selling it, so I appreciate this service you provide... thanks so much." - M

"I just want to take a moment to respond with a hearty thank you for being out there with this information! Until I punched in "filigree" along with antique/brass/hanging/Indian/etc......I wasn't pulling up any pictures that resemble what I have. My Dad was an art/antique/music box collector-dealer who left behind many items I have hung onto, but never knew the approximate value of. I have one such fixture with the same lattice-type work, but it is taller, in that it has a more domed top/shape. It also only has one bulb. Now, I'm off to check your response on the cloisonne lamp...... Thanks again.......I'm glad to know you're out there." - Debbie G

"I am thrilled to have more information on this artist! We actually have 4 of his watercolors, all appear to be scenes of European cities. I'll attach this information to one of them, so when we die our children won't sell them in a garage sale or toss them!" - MK Stephens
