Original Civil War-era soldier’s bounty broadside, 13 x 19, dated March 1, 1866, with the top announcing “BOUNTIES AND LAND WARRANTS!” Produced by “T.H. Dinsmore & Co., Skowhegan, Maine,” advertising the company’s ability to collect pensions and bounties on behalf of Union soldiers who fought in the Civil War. Dinsmore & Co. proclaims they have “done a very large and successful business,” and that they will not “charge for services until the money is collected, and then only legal fees.” In fragile but good to very good condition, with partial separations along intersecting folds, scattered toning, soiling, and foxing, a few small areas of paper loss, a couple edge tears, and scattered creasing and wrinkling.
