This lot consists of three uncommon Civil War era envelopes (unused). The first envelope has a finely engraved map of the District of Columbia with a portrait of Maj. Gen. McClellan. The second has a map of the Greater Washington D.C. area with an engraving of a soldier on a horse. The third envelope has a map of northern Virginia and Maryland with a portrait of Maj. Gen. Banks. A nice set of envelope maps which would be difficult to replace.
