HAND COLORED CIVIL WAR PRINT.

HAND COLORED CIVIL WAR PRINT. Large print, oak framed, vertical image 28-1/2” x 19-1/4”, titled “Cooper Shop Volunteer Refreshment Saloon”. The top 2/5 of the image is occupied with an exterior view showing a series of large multi-story brick buildings with several formations of soldiers marching with another line of soldiers entering one of the buildings, apparently for a draught. A red, white & blue bunting flag flies over that building & it is marked “Wm. M. Cooper & Co.” and on a small banner below that, “Union Now and Forever / Death to all Traitors”. There is a flag flying from a line on which is printed “Cooper Shop Volunteers Refreshment Saloon – Free”. This image is surmounted with a spread-winged American eagle, the American flag, and an Indian maiden, with a long ribbon inscribed in Latin. Also on the left side of this image is another banner inscribed “Merit where merit is due / Cooper Shop Volunteer Refreshment Saloon Supported by Contributors”. This banner is surrounded by stars. The bottom 3/5 of the image is an interior view depicting a long hall with tables seating numerous military officers & enlisted men with ladies serving, all in the background, with a group of prosperous looking civilians in the foreground, one of whom is probably Mr. Cooper in the center. That image has an actual photograph of a face over the image. CONDITION: Fine. Colors are vivid, albeit, slightly muted. It is lightly soiled and the matting is yellowed and dark. Frame is scuffed & nicked with loose corners, but intact. 4-51452 JR1100 (1,000-2,000)
