George Tyler Bigelow, and the Officers & Members of the New England Guards, Published by Henry Prentiss, Boston, Very Fine.

The central illustration on the front cover is a wonderful image of a Captain Bigelow holding the colors of his unit, which is itself a rare Massachusetts Banner Flag. There is a 3" sealed tear on the lower right corner of each sheet with the second sheet having a period repair on the blank back. A very scarce, early American Militia and Military Sheet illustrated music score.
