Known for its remarkable artwork and phenomenal colors, the N99 Civil War Battles Scenes is arguably one of the most beautiful non-sports sets of the 19th century. Created during a time when people who lived through the Civil War were still around to collect these gems, the set highlights events and battles that were still fresh on people's minds.
