Rare collection of color postcards featuring destinations in Berlin, Germany; from the library of Philemon Tecumseh Sherman. Sextodecimo, seven heliotint pages in a folding album, original envelope wrappers, illustrated. Fine in good wrappers with some rubbing and closed tears, a few losses to the extremities.
General William Tecumseh Sherman’s son P. T. Sherman was a lawyer in New York, specializing in labor and insurance, and was elected a member of the New York Board of Alderman in the late 1880s. In the early 1900s, he was appointed the New York Commissioner of Labor. He transferred his library to his niece, Eleanor Sherman Fitch, the granddaughter of General Sherman through his eldest daughter, Maria “Minnie” Ewing Sherman Fitch, before he died. Until now, this set of postcards was held at the family estate in Washington County, Pennsylvania.
