Confederate major general (1836–1906), known as ‘Fightin’ Joe,’ who led his troops in vigorous opposition to Sherman during the Atlanta campaign. Matte-finish 2 x 3.25 photo, inlaid into a cream 8 x 10.5 sheet, signed on the sheet in black ink, “Faithfully yours, Joseph Wheeler, August 1865.” Reverse bears an ink collector’s notation, in full: “Gen. Wheeler signed this portrait Sep. 18, 1905 in New York. He said he was 28 years old when it was taken by Brady in 1865 at Brady’s request.” In fine condition, with moderate silvering to dark areas of the image.
