Inaugural January 2019 Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 1/27/2019
Not a great deal is known about the American Chicle Kis-Me Gum Confederate Portraits set. The set includes (140) members of the Confederate army hierarchy. The individual cards are actually printed on very thin paper with a printed back and size about 1.0 by 1.25 inches. In addition to the individual members photos/cards, there is a larger book plate sized picture that measures about 4.0 x 5.0 inches and it is usually found in the front of the album that the cards are almost always found in. The album is titled "Confederate Portrait Album". We believe that the cards came as a set and were assembled by the recipient, putting each picture in it's assigned spot within the album. This lot includes (6) PSA-Graded copies of cards from the set of (140).
The cards in the lot include: #67 W.Y.C. Humes EX-MT6, #79 John H Morgan EXMT6, #93 W.H.C. Whiting NM7, #102 William Barksdale EXMT6, #113 W.S. Featherston NM7 and #119 Maxcy Gregg NM7. Only 418 of these have ever been graded by PSA, so the majority of these are among the highest examples graded. None, however are highest graded example.
