This nice little letter would be great for display as it has a colorful 2^nd Corps, 1^st Division illustrated cover.  The letter mentions marching through Richmond:

“We passed in review through Richmond on 3 of the principal streets –

was reviewed by Major General Meade.  We passed the Libby Prison

and Castle Thunder where the Rebs held our prisoners.” 

Read the rest of this interesting little letter and nice cover!  It has a full I.D.: “Wesley H. Shaw, Company G, 2nd Regiment Heavy Artillery, 1st Division, 2^nd Corps.”  Condition of the letter is excellent.  There are two tears on the bottom of the envelope, but the “Washington D.C.” cancelation and stamp are perfect!
