Original 2.25 x 4 carte-de-visite photo of Grant in uniform, by F. Gutekunst of Philadelphia, signed under the image and lower border in black ink, “U. S. Grant, Lt. Gen. U.S.A.” Missing lower right corner, some light surface loss along top edge, paperclip impression to top, and some scattered light soiling and surface marks, otherwise very good condition. Grant was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General by Abraham Lincoln in March of 1864, a rank to which no US Army officer except George Washington had been promoted before on a permanent basis.
