Description: Scarce early original vintage CDV (carte de Visite) of famous Civil War ear governor, senator, and Secretary of State This is a vintage photograph and not a copy or reproduction. Edward Everett (April 11, 1794 – January 15, 1865) was an American politician, Unitarian pastor, educator, diplomat, and orator from Massachusetts. Everett, as a Whig, served as U.S. representative, U.S. senator, the 15th governor of Massachusetts, minister to Great Britain, and United States secretary of state. He also taught at Harvard University and served as its president. Everett was one of the great American orators of the antebellum and Civil War eras. He is often remembered today as the featured orator at the dedication ceremony of the Gettysburg National Cemetery in 1863, where he spoke for over two hours—immediately before President Abraham Lincoln delivered his famous two-minute Gettysburg Address. CDV measures 2 1/2 x 4 inches and is in very good condition with only a couple small spots at right border area(see scan). There are no bends, tears, or creases and the image is very sharp and has strong tones with good contrast and clarity. Please email with any questions and please "VIEW SELLERS OTHER ITEMS". Thanks.
