GDG- Gettysburg items

[Robert Heath]

The Heritage Civil War auction ends today, and includes such things as Sickles' campaign chest, Lee's "True Copies" of the articles of surrender letters exchanged with Grant, the "sharpshooter" picture, and a lot of other pieces of history. Since my budget is in the "imagination only" category, I wondered what one Gettysburg related item (currently known to exist or not) I would most like to have displayed on my CW bookcase. I think it might start a few conversations to have Armistead's sword with his hat still on it. Warren's binoculars? Council of War table? 

I wonder what others in the group would like to find in their great aunt's attic, or just under the tree in a few months? 

If you expand the exercise to the entire conflict, it can be imagination overload... but still sorta fun!
