Gettysburg Interest: Autographed CDV of Gen. John C. Robinson, CMOH
4/30/2014 - Firearms and Militaria: Live Salesroom Auction
Brady view of Maj. Gen. John C. Robinson '35 CMOH, ink signed beneath portrait, Col. 1st MI; five wartime brevets including Gettysburg, the Wilderness, and Spotsylvania, plus a Medal of Honor for Laurel Hill awarded in 1894.

While commanding a division in the 5th Corps, this gallant officer lost his left leg while leading a forlorn charge at Spotsylvania on May 8, 1864, and was never again fit for field command.
