SMITH, GUSTAVUS A.
(1820 - 1885) Union brigadier general, as colonel he led the 35 Illinois, wounded at Pea Ridge, later served in guarding critical railroad routes. Excessively rare D.S. ""G. A. Smith"" as Tax Collector, 1p. 3 1/2"" x 7"", a ""Stub for Special Tax Stamp"" issued to a ""Wholesale Liquor Dealer"", signed by Smith in blank. Fine condition. Smith is certainly one of the most difficult Union general's signatures to obtain.
