[ Autographs ] GEORGE A. CUSTER (1839 - 1876) Union major general of cavalry who fought in nearly every battle of the Army of the Potomac,including Gettysburg, and later met his tragic end at the hands of Sioux warriors at the battle of Little Big Horn. A fine and uncommon war-dated A.E.S. removed from a document, stating, in full: "Headqrs. 2d. Brig. 3rd. Div. C.C., Jan. 17,1864. Approved & respectfully forwarded. G. A. Custer, Brig. Genl.". Very good.
