CR) Robert E. Lee Framed Photograph on Silk WH Tucker Kayess

Description

Up for sale is a framed photograph of General Robert E. Lee printed on silk. The frame is very old and does have some wear as can be expected as the image itself dates back to the Civil War. The image appears to be from a silk handkerchief which was produced by W.H. Tucker Kayess of London England. The floral pattern found around Lee in the photo was copyrighted by Kayess. The American Civil War Museum houses several of these handkerchiefs, however there do not seem to be any others available which are framed in this manner. This is a very rare piece of Civil War memorabilia and an excellent addition for any collection. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about this item.
