This paper envelope was found at an estate sale in Pittsburg Texas. It has a very nice etching of General Butler on the front and the union eagle on the back. The 1867 Washington 3 cent stamp is applied upside down and hand canceled. The envelope is addressed in pencil to Capt. B. Stone, 2nd Brigade, 2nd Division, 11th ?, Army of Cumberland.
“Benjamin Franklin Butler was a major general of the Union Army, politician, lawyer, and businessman from Massachusetts. Born in New Hampshire and raised in Lowell, Massachusetts, Butler is best known as a political major general of the Union Army during the American Civil War, and for his leadership role in the impeachment of U.S. President Andrew Johnson. He was a colorful and often controversial figure on the national stage and in the Massachusetts political scene, during his one term as Governor.
I have had this scanner for almost 4 years and scanned everything from brochures, photos, receipts and multiple sizes of papers. It scans at 30 pages per minute and can do the front and back at the same time. The scanning speed is very fast but it is quiet too. It is easy to clean the scanning mechanism after scanning a dusty scrapbook or old photo. Making the next scan as good as the first!
If you are looking for an all in one negative/slide/photo scanner look no further. This thing is great. There is a brief learning curve and you need to experiment with all the settings and how to use the included holders. Also, when working with negatives and slides dust is not your friend. Compressed air and a soft brush are helpful. We have been using the Espon V550 everyday for over a year and have had zero issues.
