George Washington on Horseback Patriotic Civil War Cover – Union Cavalry Symbolism. Civil War patriotic cover portraying George Washington mounted on horseback above a pedestal marked "Union." Combining America's first president with patriotic symbolism, this attractive design reminded citizens that the Union represented the nation Washington helped create. Unused and original.
From a large collection of Civil War patriotic covers we recently acquired.
Mounted images of George Washington conveyed both patriotism and military leadership during the Civil War. By combining America's founding hero with the word "Union" prominently displayed beneath the horse, publishers reinforced the belief that the preservation of the United States fulfilled Washington's original vision. Washington remained one of the Civil War's most enduring patriotic icons.
