Description
Description
Autographed and signed presidential memorabilia from the Civil War era: an original 1864 U.S. military appointment hand-signed by Abraham Lincoln and countersigned by Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton, professionally framed and authenticated by Beckett (BAS). As the 16th U.S. President, Lincoln led the Union to victory and issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863. In March 1864 he was reorganizing Union leadership ahead of Grant’s rise—context that underscores the weight of this wartime commission.

Parkhurst as Commissary of Subsistence of Volunteers with the rank of Captain (to rank from March 2, 1864); 1 page, 15.75" x 19.75", countersigned by Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton with docketing at upper left by Adjutant General William A.
