American politician and Union Army general during the Civil War. He commanded a division in the Vicksburg campaign and in the fighting about Chattanooga, and was one of William T. Sherman's corps commanders in the final campaigns in Georgia and the Carolinas. Original vintage 2.5 x 4 carte-de-visite bust portrait of Blair, by C. D. Fredricks & Co., signed at the bottom in black ink, “Frank P. Blair, Major Genl U.S. Vols.” A few light spots and surface dings, and a small caption and mounting remnants to reverse, otherwise fine condition. The first such signed photo of Blair we have seen, dating to after his promotion in November of 1863.
