 PENNSYLVANIA. J.L. Gibson Sutler, 26th Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers. Ten Cents. December 18, '186'1. Printed on thin, white bond paper. 105mm by 59mm. Typeset note printed in black. Issuer and date across the top '26th Reg't Pa. V.' with date at the right. Denomination in the center 'TEN CENTS' with obligation above and below, '...Payable in Merchandise at the Sutler's Store.' End panels with 'TEN CENTS'. Space below for the signature of the 'Sutler'. No imprint. Keller PA-SC010. Rarity 7. Not illustrated in Keller. Perhaps only known from the lot description in the Criswell catalogue. Another great rarity from the State and series. Very vivid with extra wide margins and a bold signature. A burn patch under the date, but Choice Fine. A final opportunity at this sutler issuer.
