NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST FAMILY PHOTO ALBUM - PRICE DROP*** 300 + SOLD

Description

THIS IS 25 PHOTOS, 4X6 INCH IN A 24 PAGE ALBUM THESE ALBUMS WERE LISTED BEFORE , BUT I HAD TO TAKE THEM DOWN BECAUSE I WAS MOVING AND HAD THEM PACKED AWAY!  I FOUND 10 MORE SO I AM PUTTING THEM UP FOR SALE, I HAVE GONE TO A SOFT CHEAP ALBUM, AS I AM UNABLE TO GET THE HARD SIDED ALBUMS BECAUSE OF THE COVID THING, AND SHIPPING FROM CHINA IS SO BACKED UP, I MAY JUST STOP MAKING THE ALBUM!  SOME OF THE PHOTOS IN THE ALBUM HAVE NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE.
THE FIRST PHOTO IS THE WEDDING PHOTO TAKEN OF GENERAL FORREST AND MARY ANN MONTGOMERY IN 1845, THIS PHOTO WAS A DAGUERREOTYPE, IT HAS BEEN MISSING FOR OVER 120 YEARS, AND WAS FOUND AMONGST  THE GENERAL'S GRANDDAUGHTER'S KEEPSAKES BY A FAMILY MEMBER ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO, IT WAS USED AS A WOOD CUT ON A 1901 UNITED CONFEDERATE VETERAN'S PROGRAM.,  I HAVE ADDED A PHOTO OF THE WOODCUT AND THE ORIGINAL DAGUERROTYPE !
AT THE NEXT SHOW I SET UP AT I WILL HAVE THE SISTER SWORD TO THE GENERAL'S SWORD, I AM REPLACING THE GREY RAY SKIN ON THE GRIP, AND THE DOUBLE TWISTED WIRE THAT HOLDS THE RAY SKIN IN PLACE!
THE PHOTOS YOU SEE HERE ARE NOT AS GOOD AS WHAT IS IN THE ALBUM, THE QUALITY IS MUCH BETTER IN THE ALBUM, AS SO MANY HAVE BEEN COPIED AND RESOLD! I UPGRADED THE PHOTOS FOR THIS ALBUM!   MY FRIEND, SHELBY FOOTE, WAS A PERSONAL FRIEND OF THE GENERAL'S GRANDDAUGHTER AND SAID HE THOUGHT HE HAD SEEN ALL OF THE PICTURES OF FORREST, BUT WHEN I GAVE HIM ONE OF THE ALBUMS, HE SAID THERE WERE MANY HE HAD NOT SEEN!  THE ARTIST JOHN PAUL STRAIN USED MY ALBUM TO PAINT SEVERAL OF HIS PAINTINGS OF FORREST!
NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST NEEDS TO BE KNOWN FOR MORE THAN BEING A GENERAL, HE WAS A FAMILY MAN, A BUILDER OF RAILROADS, ONE OF THE FIRST CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVIST IN THE SOUTH!
I UP GRADE THE ALBUM WHEN A BETTER QUALITY PHOTO IS FOUND!  THERE WERE ONLY ABOUT   300   OF THESE ALBUMS MADE, AND I MAY NEVER MAKE ANY MORE, IF YOU DO NOT SEE THE ALBUM LISTED, IT MAY BE SOMEONE HAS BOUGHT ONE AND I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO POST ANOTHER ONE, SO WAIT A COUPLE OF HOURS AND TRY AGAIN, THERE ARE ONLY  10   AS OF NOW.   GOOD LUCK IN YOUR BIDDING!
I WAS ASKED WHY I DIDN'T EXCEPT RETURNS, MY ANSWER IS SIMPLE, VERY BAD PEOPLE BUY THE ALBUM, COPY THE PHOTOS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN PUBLISHED BEFORE, AND SELL THEM ON EBAY, AND RETURN THE ALBUM!  I ASK IS THAT FAIR TO ME, IF I DID NOT MAKE THE ALBUM, AND JUST KEEP THE PHOTOS ON MY LIVING ROOM WALL NO ONE WOULD EVER SEE THESE PHOTOS, UNLESS YOU CAME TO A CIVIL WAR SHOW IN MEMPHIS, OR CORINTH, MISSISSIPPI!  I CAN LOOK ON THE INTERNET ANY DAY OF THE WEEK AND SEE MY FAMILY PHOTOS FOR SALE OR DISPLAY!
I MAKE NO MONEY OFF OF THE ALBUMS, I USE WHAT I GET TO PAY FOR TABLES AT THE CIVIL WAR SHOWS, AND MY EXPENSES, MOTEL ROOMS, GAS, FOOD, AND A DOG SITTER FOR MY DOG, BELLE!  MY DISPLAY TAKES UP 2 TABLES, AS I GET DIFFERENT PHOTOS, AND IF I PUT OUT STORIES ABOUT FORREST THAT WERE FACT, AND NOT FICTION, WITH HANDOUTS, SOMETIMES 3 TABLES.  A DISPLAY TABLE CAN RUN FROM TO 0!
THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING
