Offered is a 48-card near set of N78 "Histories of Generals" non-sports cards issued by Duke in 1888. The functionally designed "Generals" booklets contain mini-biographies of the war's most prominent figures with, in a number of cases, entries narrated by the history makers, themselves! Far more than simple, two-dimensional collectibles, these are exceptionally scarce and significant period artifacts. Missing Jackson and A.S. Johnston for completion. Grant is missing its back cover. Pleasing VG to EX condition (handful lesser).
