Civil War Patriotic Cover – Our Union Our Constitution Our Flag – Eagle Design. Impressive Civil War-era patriotic envelope featuring a bold red and blue illustration of an American eagle with outstretched wings, surrounded by American flags and patriotic bunting. Across the top appears the declaration "OUR UNION, OUR CONSTITUTION, AND OUR FLAG!"
Beneath the illustration is a spirited verse pledging resistance to treason and defending the nation's rights and unity. An attractive and outspoken example of Union patriotic stationery, particularly notable for its colorful imagery and forceful political message.

From a collection of original Civil War patriotic covers we recently acquired.
The preservation of the Constitution and the suppression of rebellion were central themes of Union patriotic propaganda. Envelopes bearing eagles, flags, and strongly worded declarations against treason expressed the determination of Northern supporters to preserve the United States as a single nation.
