CIVIL War Ohio Cavalry Pass On Rebel Paper Petersburg Virginia Siege
An Original Civil War Union Army makeshift pass issued in the Petersburg trenches on a partial sheet of what appears to be part of a Confederate lined paper. I have the honor to request a pass for Corporals David Lewis and Solon L Darling, and fro Privates Ezra Bonesteel & Alfred Thompson F Company 6th OVC to visit Petersburg.

The Pass is undated, overwritten in large dark ink " Approved Frank C Loveland Lt Colonel Commanding 6th Ohio Vol Cav". Comes w service info for Colonel Loveland who enlisted in 1861as a private and rose through the ranks. This is maybe the rattiest Civil War document I have ever owned, (aside from my copy of Lee's General Order Number 9 which is in beyond awful condition). But I couldn't resist this makeshift pass issued in the trenches on the only paper this officer could find in the moment apparently.

Fragile, approx 9 x 7 with rough cut edge, ink stains, reverse crudely repaired with acid free archival tape, Overall nasty condition but it is what it is. General Orders and other imprints. All items are unconditionally guaranteed to be authentic and in the condition as described. PLEASE READ DETAILS OF THE ITEM DESCRIPTION.

I TRY TO DESCRIBE ALL ITEMS ACCURATELY.
