Extremely Rare view of George and LIbby Custer taken by Brady on
October 22nd, 1864 in New York. Katz, the authority on Custer images
through his three books, lists this view as K-40 and calls it the "unique
unpublished cdv in the collection of Dr Lawrence A Frost". This is the
exact same image but the mount is missing a ding which is shown in the
book, so this may be the Second available of this view on the
marketplace. Several varient views of Custer and Libby have recently
sold at auction for between $13-16,000 which is a bit crazy, in my view.
But then who am I to question the marketplace, as they are real auction
bids taken in the last 4 months. Exremely good condition and a wonderful
piece to add to any collection.
