Circa: 1860's
Manufacturer: By renowned American photographer George G. Rockwood
Photograph depicting Major Robert Anderson raising the flag at Fort Sumpter. The photograph was done of a painting by Edwin White in 1862 by the title 'Major Anderson Raising the Flag on the Morning of His Taking Possession of Fort Sumter, Dec. 27, 1860'. The photograph measuring approximately 8.25"w x 5.75"h is mounted on a thick card backing with tannish colored perimeter outlined with a line in gold-gilt. Below the line to the left is printed 'G. G. Rockwood' and to the right '839 Broadway N.Y'.
The photograph had been in an old frame of the period and framed along with the photograph was woven fabric pieces comprised of red and white thread. While it would be nice if it were a memento from the original flag there of course is no documentation that it came from the original flag at Fort Sumter.
There is toning of the mount and a water stain on the lower right side of the mount. There is a slight surface crease on the edge of the border on the right side measuring about 3/4 of an inch.
Would be glad to answer any questions you may have and/or provide a cost for mailing this item.
