Whole Hog or None, Excellent Patriotic Civil War Cover food cart which matches the backing paperThere were a lot of interesting patriotic covers (envelopes) produced during the civil war era, but this my be my favorite I've seen and quite a concise and effective way of communicating the Union message, I'd say.
