Civil War Patriotic Cover – "We Fight For Our Country" April 19, 1775 & 1861. Hard-to-find unusually shaped Civil War patriotic cover featuring an eagle, crossed American flags, state seal, and the patriotic motto "We Fight For Our Country."

The design commemorates two pivotal dates in American history: April 19, 1775, marking the beginning of the American Revolution, and April 19, 1861, an important early date in the Civil War. By linking these events, the cover draws a direct connection between the generation that fought for independence and those fighting to preserve the Union.

An especially appealing example of Civil War patriotic symbolism that combines Revolutionary War remembrance with contemporary Civil War themes. Unused and original.

From a very fine collection of Civil War covers we recently acquired. 

Historical Notes

This unusual patriotic cover commemorates April 19, 1775, the opening battles of the American Revolution at Lexington and Concord, and April 19, 1861, one of the most significant early dates of the Civil War. The design links the Union cause to the legacy of the Revolutionary generation, suggesting that preserving the Union was a continuation of the struggle begun by America's founders.T
