| An original Civil War era diploma from the Louisville Female High School. It is printed on vellum or a good imitation and hand signed by eight of the school's administrators and teachers, date of 1867. It has original green silk ribbon and printers name at bottom under the blindstamp - German & Bro. Lou. KY. The first Louisville Female High School opened in 1856 on Green Street (now Liberty) and shortly thereafter moved to the corner of Center and Walnut Streets. A new site on First Street was dedicated in 1864 and served as the Louisville Female High School until 1898 when the enrollment outgrew the old facilities. This original 19th century diploma measures 19 1/4 x 13 3/4 inches and has never been framed. It is rippled but not creased and would flatten if framed. A wonderful piece of Southern historical memorabilia. | ||
