EXTREMELY FINE. A PHENOMENAL PATRIOTIC COVER TYING GEORGE WASHINGTON AND HIS IMAGE AS THE FATHER OF INDEPENDENCE WITH THE THEME OF A MODERN VOLUNTEER SOLDIER CONTINUING THE STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE. A FANTASTIC THEME ON A COLORFUL COVER TO AUSTRIA FROM THE FAMOUS ANGELL CORRESPONDENCE.

At the time of our nation's founding, it was thought that the Southern colonies, with their heavy economic reliance on slavery, would not join the new nation if slavery were abolished and all men (including slaves) were free and equal. Many Northern colonies pushed for abolishing slavery and some prominent Southern politicians recognized the dichotomy, but in the end unity of the fledgling nation took precedence over the freedom of slaves. This was the great piece of unfinished business of the Revolutionary War era. This issue would show itself at different times over the next 80 years, until its culmination in the event that would again divide the nation -- the Civil War.

The cover offered here incorporates this historical theme. Washington is shown at left as the standard-bearer of freedom of 1776 and the undisputed icon of the Revolutionary War in both the North and South. On the right is a Zouave soldier, carrying on the same tradition in 1861. Zouaves were volunteers who adopted the name and dress of French North African regiments of the same name. The tradition of the volunteer militia so instrumental to the success of the Revolutionary War is another theme reflected in this cover. Interestingly, the words "The Present" under the Zouave were crossed out.
