Vintage Civil War GEN. R. R. LEE Docs On Antiqued Parchment Paper, Confederate Currency, Decrees

"General Robert E. Lee: Selected Writings Bearing His Own Signature!" Educational packet. Washington, D.C.: Unknown publisher, 1956. AS IS -- This 1956 educational packet reflects the "Lost Cause" narrative prevalent in some Southern states during the Civil Rights era. By presenting Robert E. Lee's writings as revered historical documents, supporters aimed to reinforce traditional Southern values and social hierarchies in response to growing racial integration efforts and civil rights activism. Of course, this might not have been politically motivated at all but merely a business venture.
