Original Civil War patriotic cover featuring a compact but striking multicolor design titled “SUMTER – UNION FOREVER.” At center is a portrait of Major Robert Anderson, commander of Fort Sumter, encircled by a laurel wreath and framed by crossed American flags in red, white, and blue.

This small-format cover (approx. 3.5" x 3") carries bold patriotic symbolism despite its size, celebrating Anderson as an early Union hero following the bombardment of Fort Sumter in April 1861. The vivid hand-colored flags and balanced composition make it especially appealing for display.

An attractive and historically significant piece tied directly to the opening chapter of the Civil War.

Unused and original. 

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

Historical Notes

Major Robert Anderson commanded Union forces at Fort Sumter during the Confederacy’s opening attack in April 1861. Though forced to surrender after bombardment, Anderson was celebrated in the North as a symbol of loyalty and resistance
