It was the first insurance company in Florida and one of the largest black-owned businesses in Florida. "As the oldest life insurance company in Florida and one of the most successful black businesses in the state it helped thousands of blacks over the years. The importance of that insurance company… cannot be underestimated. According to the 'Encyclopedia of Southern Culture' the insurance companies established by African-Americans and catering to them 'formed the heart of black financial networks the cultural beginnings of which can be traced to mutual benefit societies and the church'" McCarthy African-American Sites in Florida' p. 52; c.f.

Lewis helped found the National Negro Insurance Association and the exclusive African-American vacation spot American Beach on Amelia Island and was Florida's first black millionaire.

He was a close friend of Booker T. Washington and helped Washington establish the Negro Business League…" Bartley Keeping the Faith p. 10. The company closed in 1990.

The assassination occurred five days after the surrender of Robert E. Lee and the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia. Booth was a well-known actor and a Confederate spy from Maryland though he never joined the Confederate army he had contacts with the Confederate secret service. For his final journey with his son Willie his casket was transported in the executive coach "United States" and for three weeks the Lincoln Special funeral train decorated in black bunting bore Lincoln's remains on a slow circuitous journey from Washington D.C. to Springfield Illinois stopping at many cities across the North for large-scale memorials attended by hundreds of thousands as well as many people who gathered in informal trackside tributes with bands bonfires and hymn singing or silent reverence with hat in hand as the railway procession slowly passed by. Dr S. H. Melvin was a pharmacist and friend of Abraham Lincoln was one of 15 original directors of the National Lincoln Monument Association. unknown

This exceedingly scarce Loyal Orange Lodge No. 79 remembrance ribbon for Abraham Lincoln was issued by the Portland Oregon Orange Order in the 1890s to celebrate Protestant values and to heavily promote independent public schools away from Catholic Church control. The Orange Order was founded in September 1795 after the Battle of the Diamond outside a small village in Northern Ireland and became a Protestant Secret Society loosely based on Freemasonry ritual. The victory by King William III over King James of Scotland in 1690 at the River Boyne is remembered with great affection and eventually the fraternal group would number over 100000 members at the end of the 19th century largely drawn from Northern Ireland and Northern Irish immigrants.

Well-preserved single issue of this uncommon California weekly devoted primarily to news and events in the small artists' community of Carmel-by-the-Sea on the Monterey peninsula. Lincoln Steffens moved to Carmel in 1926 with his wife Ella and quickly established himself as a controversial and divisive figure. The present article in which Steffens presents the proposition that the only choice in the 1932 Presidential election is between Republican Hoover and Communist William Z. Foster Roosevelt offering in his opinion no more than a watered-down but ideologically identical alternative to the Republican candidate shows why. The Carmelite unknown

'Well I am not sure; but I am just about to axe him'". Seldom seen in commerce with no copies appearing in auction/catalogue records since 1966.

Abraham Lincoln Engraving.
Engraved oval portrait of Abraham Lincoln the sixteenth president of the United States. Displayed in an antique wooden frame. The engraving measures 4.5 inches by 6 inches. The entire piece measures 10.75 inches by 12.75 inches. In near fine condition. Abraham Lincoln served as the 16th President of the United States from March 1861 until his assassination in April 1865. He led the United States through its Civil War and in doing so preserved the Union of the United States of America abolished slavery and strengthened the federal government. Lincoln began constructing his cabinet on election night and sought to create a cabinet that would unite the Republican party. His eventual cabinet would include his primary rivals for the Republican nomination and although his appointees held differing views on economic issues all were opposed to the expansion of slavery into the territories of the United States. The most senior cabinet post of Secretary of State was appointed to William Seward who had recently failed to win the 1860 Republican presidential nomination and Lincoln's choice for Secretary of the Treasury was Ohio Senator Salmon P. Chase Seward's primary political rival and the leader of a radical faction of the Republican party that sought the immediate abolition of slavery. unknown

ABRAHAM LINCOLN TECHNOLOGY Report of the Commissioner of Patents for the Year 1849. Part I: Arts and Manufactures this volume only containing a patent awarded to a young Abraham Lincoln
Washington DC: Office of Printers to the House of Reps 1850. First Edition. Hardcover. Good . Octavo 626pp. illustrated plus six plates. A good or better copy in contemporary 3/4 black leather and marbled boards. Contemporary ownership signature to front free endpaper and small private library label to front paste-down else unmarked. Mild foxing to first and last few leaves. Extremities rubbed and scuffed and the joints tender but sound. An important volume in the pantheon of presidential books which chronicles on pp. 57 and 262 the award of a patent to then-Illinois Congressman Abraham Lincoln. Having twice been aboard a riverboat which got stuck on shallow shoals he developed a concept for a bellows fixed under the hull of a riverboat which could be inflated to lift the boat over the obstruction and then retract. Lincoln had been a patent lawyer in the mid-1840s and was closely familiar with the laborious patent application process. <br /> <br /> To this day Lincoln is the only president to have been awarded a patent a fact which contributes to his enduring legacy as an uncommon genius and polymath. As such this tract while unrelated to politics is an essential volume in any substantial Lincoln collection. Uncommon in the trade. Not listed in Monaghan.

[Lincoln, Abraham]
Bust of Abraham Lincoln.
c. 1909. Painted plaster bust of Abraham Lincoln mounted on a wood pedestal base. After Raffaello Gironi for The Boston Sculpture Company. Signed faintly on reverse of integrated plaster pedestal "R. Gironi." An unpainted plaster of this sculpture is in the collection of the Canadian Museum of History Ottawa. In fine condition. The piece measures 21 inches by 9.5 inches. Abraham Lincoln served as the 16th President of the United States from March 1861 until his assassination in April 1865. He led the United States through its Civil War and in doing so preserved the Union of the United States of America abolished slavery and strengthened the federal government. In his Address at the Sanitary Fair in Baltimore Maryland in April of 1861 Lincoln stated: “The world has never had a good definition of the word liberty and the American people just now are much in want of one. We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself and the product of his labor; while with others the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men and the product of other men’s labor. Here are two not only different but incompatible things called by the same name liberty. And it follows that each of the things is by the respective parties called by two different and incompatible names…liberty and tyranny.†unknown

DAILY ILLINOIS STATE REGISTER. VOL. 14. NO.22
Springfield: Charles H. Lanphier 1861. 4 pp. Folio. 16-1/4" x 23-1/2.". Lightly chipped blank inner edge. Each page printed in six columns each separated by a rule. Very Good.<br /> <br /> The Register no friend of Abraham Lincoln was a Democratic Paper supporting the Crittenden Compromise. Reporting on State and National issues the Register notes "The Crittenden Resolutions have strong friends but the ultra republicans will not take them." Lincoln had insisted that his allies hold firm against Crittenden's Compromise. The Register rebukes Lincoln for his famous declaration that "the Union could not endure permanently part slave and part free." Developments in the fracturing Union are reported. <br /> Lincoln had been elected President nearly three months before the appearance of this issue. His inauguration would occur five weeks later. Paid advertisers include John McClernand and John Stuart who advertise their legal services in the first column of page 1. The large number and variety of advertisements for an array of medical complaints about four columns are surprising- - and a little disturbing. <br /> This issue also reports an incident involving the John Brownites at Boston who were snubbed by British Lord Brougham after inviting him to attend a convention discussing the abolition of slavery.

Emancipation Proclamation. General Orders No. 1. War Department Adjutant General’s Office Washington January 2 1863.
Washington: Government Printing Office January 2 1863. Rare first War Department and fifth overall printing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Twelvemo General Orders No. 1 extracted from the larger volume of orders for 1863 4 pages disbound. President Lincoln had intended to issue the order earlier in 1862 but deliberately delayed its release until after the Union's strategic victory at Antietam at which point he announced the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. General Order No. 139 September 22 1862 which declared that all slaves held in rebelling states would be forever free from the first day of January 1863. The text of the final Emancipation Proclamation present in this order is noted for its direct and decisive language: "By the President of the United States of America . That on the first day of January in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States shall be then thenceforward and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States including the military and naval authority thereof will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons and will do no act or acts to repress such persons or any of them in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom." The first printing for the War Department of General Orders No. 1 was distributed to various military outposts and bureaus throughout the United States. Based on the extensive research of Charles Eberstadt the copy for the War Department was the fifth time the final version of the Emancipation Proclamation appeared in print on January of 1863 following three hastily prepared issues for the State Department and another for Lincoln's hometown Illinois States Journal newspaper in Springfield Illinois. A copy of the War Department Printing was included in the Grolier Club's One Hundred Influential American Books Printed before 1900. Eberstadt 12; Grolier Club One Hundred Influential American Books 71; Streeter 1751. In near fine condition. Housed in a custom half morocco case. A scarce work. The Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1 1863 represented a pivotal moment in the trajectory of the American Civil War and the broader struggle over the institution of slavery. Although it did not immediately free all enslaved individuals the proclamation declared that all persons held as slaves in states or parts of states still in rebellion against the United States were to be henceforth free. This executive order grounded in Lincoln's war powers as commander-in-chief was intended primarily as a military measure to weaken the Confederacy by undermining its labor force and discouraging foreign powers from recognizing or supporting the secessionist cause. The proclamation also signaled a significant shift in Union war aims reframing the conflict from a struggle solely to preserve the Union to one explicitly linked to the abolition of slavery. While its immediate legal impact was limited to areas outside Union control the Emancipation Proclamation laid the groundwork for the eventual passage of the Thirteenth Amendment which formally abolished slavery throughout the United States.

Emancipation Proclamation: New York Tribune… Tuesday September 23 1862. Vol. XVIII
Newspaper folio unbound 8pp. Dampstained browned at edges with some foxing early owner's ink stamp on top margin some small tears and chips along edges and a little creasing. Still in decent shape overall. This is one of the earliest printings of the Emancipation Proclamation which was issued on September 22 1862. The Emancipation Proclamation declared freedom for all slaves in any Confederate state that didn't return to the Union by January 1 1863. Although this executive order did not actually free a large number of slaves it set the stage for the freedom of all slaves. Coverage of the Emancipation in this newspaper begins in the middle of the first page. This newspaper article represents important coverage of a very significant event in American History. archives government exhibits emancipation website

FREEDOM TO THE SLAVES. PROCLAIMED JANUARY 1ST. 1863 BY ABRAHAM LINCOLN PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. "PROCLAIM LIBERTY THROUGHOUT ALL THE LAND UNTO ALL THE INHABITANTS THEREOF." LEV. XXV. 10
New York: Currier & Ives 1865. Color print 11-3/4" x 15-1/2" by sight. A black man newly freed from slavery kneels at Lincoln's feet his shackles broken. He kisses Lincoln's hand. His wife and babies stand behind him. Lincoln's right arm is raised and pointing heavenward. Light uniform toning but brightly colored. Two blank margin tears at lower right corner one blank margin tear at upper left corner. Framed in wood a few small dings to overall size 16" x 20." Very Good.<br /> <br /> "This commemorative print was issued soon after the assassination of President Lincoln to comfort his supporters. The semi-allegorized representation portrayed the former president as the emancipator of enslaved African Americans guided by divine principles" Description online at The Met. <br /> Entering Richmond in 1865 Lincoln was met by many former slaves who kneeled before him. Lincoln told them to stand and thank God not Lincoln for their freedom. A decade later the Colored People's Educational Monument Association headed by the African-American abolitionist Henry Highland Garnet. created a memorial to Lincoln. The result was a sculpture erected in 1876 in Lincoln Park near Capitol Hill depicting a supplicant slave and a towering Lincoln. Known as the Emancipation Memorial or the Freedmen's Memorial it generated some contemporary criticism for its depiction of the inferior position of the black man. <br /> Gale 2311.

[Lincoln, Abraham].
General Orders No. 1: Thirteenth Amendment. War Department Adjutant General's Office. Washington January 8 1866.
8vo one sheet printed on both sides. Even toning and aging small closed tear to the upper margin; otherwise very good. This is a rather scarce government document that informs the military that the "Thirteenth Amendment" has passed and slavery is officially abolished. Article XIII states "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude except as a punishment for a crime whereby the party shall have been duly convicted shall exist within the United States or any place subject to their jurisdiction." This document is signed in type by William H. Seward 1801-1872 as the Secretary of State. Congress would follow with a Civil Rights Act of 1866 to give African Americans the same rights as all citizens but this small printed document presenting the essence of the "Thirteenth Amendment" is an important piece of history.
