scopru Pillar of the Community United States 5029 Posts	Posted 01/05/2018 4:18 pm Greg that is quite a vignette. A 2v1 fight and he appears to have his leg pinned under the horse. Report this Post to the Staff
GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 824 Posts	Posted 01/06/2018 01:02 am It looks like quite a battle! I have a theory that this scene is loosely based on another vignette done about 20 years earlier. You'll see some similarities if you look closely.

scopru Pillar of the Community United States 5029 Posts	Posted 01/09/2018 08:31 am Interesting Greg. I do see the similarities in the outline of the scene. Do you know the artist(s) of those two vignettes? Report this Post to the Staff

Heathermmc77 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 01/27/2018 12:26 am Here is one from Memphis,Tn. Not worth anything but thought it was neat that it had the envelope with it. Found in an old book. Report this Post to the Staff
GregAlex Pillar of the Community United States 824 Posts	Posted 01/27/2018 01:07 am Thanks for posting Heather! What you have there is actually something called an obsolete banknote. Before the Civil War, banks issued their own currency and there were thousands of different notes circulating. Yours has a very nice vignette that includes five gold dollar coins. Unfortunately, the damage on the right side seriously lowers the collector value. Edited by GregAlex 01/27/2018 01:08 am Report this Post to the Staff
