This sword once belonged to General George Armstrong Custer. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own an iconic piece of American history. This sword was given to Custer's brother. Impeccable provenance. The consignor believes he's the 8th owner of this sword of the most famous of American Generals. As seen on Wikipedia.
In addition, as this item was given to Custer's brother, the Custer family subsequently passed it along to the Dunbar Family. The current owner of this sword has extensively contacted and researched the Dunbar Family, who reside in Monroe, Michigan. The Dunbar's are a prominent family and are highly regarded in their community. Their signatures on the declaration are all original copies.
From the Dunbar family, this sword was owned until October 22, 1955 when it was sold.
In 1999 the sword was sold to Dr. Elizabeth Atwood Lawrence along with many other memorabilia in the Butterfield & Butterfield auction.

We understand there is international interest in many items and many collectors have UPS or international shipping accounts which do not include the packaging of the item. Therefore, we have arranged onsite packaging with a reputable company that will prepare the item for pick up and transport.
Alternatively, if full service is required, which includes shipping, packaging, and transportation, we have partnered up with a customs brokerage that will come to our site, pick up the item(s) and take it to their facility in Vancouver whereby they will wrap it and ship it for transport. This option would require an account to be set up with the company but will be substantially a cost-efficient and convenient option as they manage all customs paperwork as well. Further, on larger and higher value items, we will extend the removal date of the item and work with you one-on-one to garner the best and most cost-effective way to get your item(s) to you.
Our goal is to work with you to get your collectible(s) to you safely and securely in the most cost-effective manner. If you have any questions, please contact us directly at contact@directliquidation.ca and we will be happy to work with you prior to or after the auction.
** PLEASE NOTE ALL ITEMS NOT PICKED UP BEFORE June 30, 2021 WILL BECOME THE PROPERTY OF DIRECT LIQUIDATION AND WILL NOT BE GIVEN TO THE SUCCESSFUL BIDDER.**
