SORT OF A TICKET--A CIVIL WAR PASS FOR 1ST CLASS PASSAGE ON STEAMSHIP TO HILTON HEAD
This is one of several Civil War rare passes we have in our inventory, following the sale of several others in our recent Civil War sale.
I have been very fortunate to find a variety of passes over the years, perhaps giving the incorrect impression that they aren't as rare as I have said. But I have spent countless hours researching for everything from magazine articles to books I've written...to items I have found for resale as well as being used in the publications.
I don't mean to sound pretentious about my ability to reserch. But there never is a guarantee you will EVER find what you are looking for, but the more hours you spend, the better your chances. Every collector--and of most anything collectible--has found this to be true. And I've devoted a lot of time hunting for world's fair tickets, Civil War passes and other itesm and I have been rewarded with many great finds over the years.
This document is for first class passage from New York to Hilton Head, S.C. in 1864. While not a ticket...it's for passage on a steamer.
