Civil War Patriotic Cover WHOLE OR NON Pig with American Flag Satirical Envelope
Original Civil War patriotic envelope with hand-colored seated female allegorical figure draped in the American flag. Caption above reads “What are you going to do?” with reply below: “I’ll never surrender!” A powerful symbolic wartime message of Union perseverance and defiance. Attractive red and blue hand coloring adds strong visual appeal. Unused original.
From a large collection of very fine Civil War covers and memorabilia we recently acquired.
Many Northern patriotic covers emphasized preserving the Union intact. The pig motif may ridicule compromise or mock secessionist positions.
