Campbell Grant Collection, ca. 1861-1864.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/62272033

The collection contains more than 300 patriotic Civil War covers, mainly Union and unused, and eight letter press copies of blockade run invoices and letters. The covers are arranged by type in two albums, housed in slipcases. A description at the front of the first album indicates that most of the covers were produced during the early part of the war and were collected by James Wilson, a druggist in Tekonsha, Michigan. The blockade run invoices and letters are from William P. Campbell, an agent in St. George, Bermuda, to Col. Sewell L. Fremont in Wilmington, North Carolina. The papers accompanied cargo that was run through the Union blockade by Confederate or British blockade runners from February to August 1864.
