Superb, character-filled carte-de-visite photo of an older Lee, 2.5 x 4, signed in ink on the image, ?R. E. Lee.? The reverse bears a contemporaneous ink notation in another hand, ?Apr. 15, 70?; Lee died on October 12 of that year. A touch of mild scattered soiling and a few tiny, very faint spots to background, otherwise fine condition. An impressive example of one of the most coveted (and colorful) of Civil War personalities, with a dark, perfect signature! LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
