Post War Cartoon - 1865

"Give me your hand, comrade! 
We have each lost a leg for a good cause; 
but, thank God, we never lost heart."
Harper's weekly, v. IX, no. 434 (1865 April 22), p. 256.
Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division Washington, D.C.




Two Union soldiers shaking hands after the war.  A unification message, and a depiction of the sacrifices our military made......
