Lincoln Abraham
THE POLITICAL GYMNASIUM
New York: Currier & Ives 1860. Lithograph broadside 13-1/2" x 18." Several closed tears two of them repaired with old tape on verso tear line affecting Seward's midsection. Good.<br/><br/> This scarce lithograph is a detailed humorous "parody on the field of presidential candidates and their supporters in the 1860 campaign." Bell and Everett for the Constitutional Union Party are there: Bell a muscle man holds Everett aloft on a barbell. Horace Greeley's "political ambitions are mocked by the artist who shows him vainly attempting to climb up a horizontal bar." Lincoln is at the center: he has "successfully mounted a balance beam constructed of wooden rails." The New York Courier's James Watson Webb's does a backward somersault in the foreground. <br/> The broadside evidently issued after the parties' nominating Conventions because Seward is depicted as a cripple "on crutches and with bandaged feet." Breckinridge and Douglas "the two sectional Democratic candidates compete in a boxing match."<br/>Reilly 1860-34 quotations are from Reilly. Weitenkampf 123. OCLC records copies at AAS Clements and Lincoln Pres. Lib. under three accession numbers as of October 2020. Currier & Ives unknown books

Lincoln Abraham
THE PROCLAMATION OF EMANCIPATION BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TO TAKE EFFECT JANUARY 1st 1863 cover title
Boston: J.M. Forbes 1862. 7pp. Miniature 3 1/4 x 2 1/8 inches. Original printed salmon wrappers. Slight soiling to wrappers light tanning. Very good. In a cloth chemise and half morocco and cloth slipcase spine gilt. The first and only contemporary printing of Lincoln's historic act in separate pamphlet form the seventh edition overall. The preliminary proclamation of the Emancipation Proclamation was issued on September 22 1862 shortly following the Battle of Antietam and declared the freedom of all slaves in any Confederate state that did not return to Union control by January 1 1863. A quotation by Alexander Stephens "Vice President of the so-called Confederate States" entitled "Slavery the Chief Corner- Stone" is printed on the rear wrapper. This small pamphlet was printed by John Murray Forbes in Boston for distribution by Union soldiers to blacks at the front lines and legend has it that he printed a million copies. Its scarcity in institutions and in the market however would seem to belie that notion; it is among the rarest of editions of the Proclamation no doubt because of its small size.

THE RAIL CANDIDATE
New York: Currier & Ives 1860. Lithograph 13 1/2 x 18 inches. Moderate age-toning foxing and soiling. Moderate browning in margins. Small closed tears and chips in margins one moderate-size closed tear in left margin. A fair copy. A lithographic political cartoon published by Currier & Ives commenting upon the anti- slavery plank of the 1860 Republican platform. "The 'essential' anti-Lincoln cartoon of 1860" - Holzer et al. Abraham Lincoln is shown being carried uncomfortably in the middle of a split wooden rail an allusion to both the platform and to Lincoln's backwoods origins. Supporting the left end of the rail is a black man in simple working clothes who states "Dis N asterisks ours strong and willin' but its awful hard work to carry Old Massa Abe on nothing but dis ere rail!!" Holding the right end of the rail is well-dressed newspaper editor and strong Lincoln supporter Horace Greeley identified by a copy of his NEW YORK TRIBUNE in his coat pocket. Greeley tells Lincoln "We can prove that you have split rails & that will ensure your election to the Presidency." Lincoln replies "It is true I have split rails but I begin to feel as if this rail would split me it's the hardest stick I ever straddled." Lincoln is depicted - visually and thematically - as a straddler at best while the images of Greeley and the African American supporting the rail are derisive. <br> <br> A finely drawn and insightful political cartoon from the 1860 election. REILLY AMERICAN POLITICAL PRINTS 1860-31. WEITENKAMPF p.123. CURRIER & IVES: CATALOGUE RAISONNÉ 5478. Harold Holzer Gabor Borritt & Mark Neely THE LINCOLN IMAGE p.38 figure 18.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY VINDICATED - THE DEMANDS OF THE SOUTH EXPLAINED. SPEECH OF HON. ABRAHAM LINCOLN OF ILLINOIS AT THE COOPER INSTITUTE N.Y. CITY FEBRUARY 27 1860
np 1860. 8pp caption title as issued. Disbound with a bit of loosening light inner margin spotting. Good.<br/><br/> Lincoln's great Cooper Union Address argues that the Framers and early Congresses contemplated a narrow and ever-diminishing role for slavery. Examining Constitutional and early Congressional debates he demonstrates that contemporary statesmen viewed slavery "as an evil not to be extended but to be tolerated and protected only because of and so far as its actual presence among us makes that toleration and protection a necessity." <br/> Lincoln's argument fusing the interests of all anti-slavery men whether abolitionists or not ranks among his greatest contributions to American political thought. It received wide press coverage catapulting him into presidential contention for it transported the new Republican Party into the center of American constitutional and legal thinking rather than to an unacceptable extreme. He thus made it easy for moderate Northern Democrats Whigs and Know-Nothings to vote Republican in 1860.<br/>Monaghan 55. LCP 5944. unknown books

Abraham Lincoln of Illinois at the Cooper Institute New York City February 27 1860. 16 pages caption title as issued. Lincoln's Historic Cooper Union discourse which catapulted him to serious presidential consideration and provided a cogent and widely-publicized argument that slavery was and always had been contrary to American values. <br/><br/>Lincoln's great Cooper Union speech argues that the Framers and early Congresses contemplated a narrow role for slavery. Examining the constitutional and early Congressional debates he demonstrates that contemporary statements viewed slavery "as an evil not to be extended but to be tolerated and protected only because of and so far as its actual presence among us makes that toleration and protection a necessity."

Lincoln Abraham 16th President of the United States
The Rail Splitter Vol. I No. 16 October 6 1860
Chicago: Charles Leib 1860. Very Good. Four-page newspaper. A couple of small holes various brown spots and other bits of minor wear A campaign newspaper for Abraham Lincoln in the Presidential Campaign of 1860. We note a half-column story on the front page of this issue that accuses Senator Douglas of being a Roman Catholic -- a charge based partly on the fact that Mrs. Douglas was a Catholic as were their children -- probably an effective charge in largely Protestant mid-19th century America. Our brief research suggests that Douglas was not a Catholic or a formal member of any other organized religious group. The purpose of another half-column story on the front page was to make it clear that Lincoln had publicly condemned the actions of John Brown and did not object to Brown's execution. Charles Leib the editor was a political operative with a murky background who had previously edited a Democratic campaign newspaper on behalf of the Buchanan campaign in 1856. Leib served briefly as an Assistant Quartermaster in the Union Army before heading to new Mexico probably in 1863 and died there in 1865 at the age of 38. <br/><br/> Charles Leib unknown books

LINCOLN Abraham 1809 1865 President.
"A Proclamation." Being the: "Emancipation Proclamation" Liberty for Slaves. WITHIN: General Orders No. 1. General Orders of the War Department Embracing the Years 1861 1862 & 1863. Adapted specially for the use of the Army and Navy of the United States. Vol. II.
New York: Derby & Miller 1864. 1864. Volume II. 8vo. xxxi 1 711 1 pp. Subtle waterstain at top margin viewable from pages 500-712. Original full dark blue-green pebbled cloth gilt spine titles; light wear to extremities. Bookplate of the Essex Institute; small rubber stamp on title C.W. Post College Documents Library. The Emancipation Proclamation declared freedom for all slaves by January 1 1863. This proclamation is dated January 2 1863. Lincoln in writing this one of the most important documents in all US history declared "And by virtue of the power and fpr the purpose aforesaid I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves within said designated States and parts of the States are and henceforward shall be free; and that the Executive government of the United States including the military and naval authorities thereof will recognize and maintain the freedom of said persons." / The War Orders of 1863 are among the most historical during the Civil War. The volume includes: General Orders No.1: Emancipation Proclamation Liberty for Slaves. / General Orders No.100: The Lieber Code How soldiers should conduct ethically themselves in wartime. / General Orders No. 143: Order for the creation of the United States Colored Troops. / General Orders No.1. President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1 1863. With this Executive Order. He took a decisive stand on the most contentious issue in American history redefined the Union's goals and strategy and sounded the death knell for slavery. / Lincoln had always believed slavery to be immoral and fought its expansion. The President took the action "sincerely believed to be an act of justice" knowing that it might cost him the election. / With the Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln dramatically tied the Union's war aims to ending slavery. Whether they approved or not after January 1 1863 Americans could no longer deny that emancipation was central to the Union war effort. / Though ready to lay the groundwork for emancipation Lincoln feared that delivering the Proclamation at the wrong time would doom its chances for public acceptance and harm the Union cause. / On September 22 1862 Lincoln issued his preliminary Emancipation Proclamation giving the South 100 days to end the rebellion or face losing their slaves. / His final Proclamation on January 1 1863 further demonstrated his own evolving views by eliminating earlier references to colonizing freed blacks and compensating slave-owners for voluntary emancipation. Lincoln also added provisions for black military enlistment. Pausing before he signed the final Proclamation Lincoln reportedly said: "I NEVER IN MY LIFE FELT MORE CERTAIN THAT I WAS DOING RIGHT THAN I DO IN SIGNING THIS PAPER." Despite the political risks by 1864 he insisted on both reunion and emancipation as preconditions to any peace negotiation. Though the battle for civil rights would have to follow Lincoln rightly regarded the Proclamation as: "THE CENTRAL ACT OF MY ADMINISTRATION AND THE GREAT EVENT OF THE 19TH CENTURY" Derby & Miller, 1864. hardcover books

Lincoln Abraham and Stephen A. Douglas
Political Debates between Hon. Abraham Lincoln and Hon. Stephen A. Douglas in the Celebrated Campaign of 1858
Columbus: Follett Foster and Company 1860. First edition. Original publisher's cloth binding with some rubbing to spine and extremities. First issue with all points as called for by Monaghan no line over the publisher's slug on title verso and the number 2 at the foot of page 17. Collates viii 268 pages: lacking front endpaper else complete. Some light scattered foxing as is common in American imprints of this era but in all a tight pleasing copy of this book documenting an important moment in American politics.<br/><br/>Documenting Lincoln and Douglas' rivalry for the 1858 U.S. Senate race this title captures an important moment of flux for American politics. Just beginning his political career the young Lincoln earned the Republican nomination right as the party was forming; and he already had proven himself "a leading figure because of his adroit and earnest dealing with the problem of slavery" Oxford Companion. One of his great strenghts was his eloquence -- something Lincoln put on full display in these debates against Douglas including the utterance of one of his most memorable lines that "A house divided against itself cannot stand."

Lincoln Abraham Pomeroy Theodore M.
PRINTED LETTER FROM POMEROY TO ABRAHAM LINCOLN JUNE 29 1863 RECOMMENDING THAT COLONEL JOHN S. CLARK BE PROMOTED TO BRIGADIER GENERAL
Auburn N.Y. 1863. Broadside 8" x 12-1/4". Very Good.<br/><br/> Congressman Pomeroy of Auburn who represented New York in Congress during the Civil War years and early Reconstruction has high praise for Colonel Clark serving on the staff of General Banks and recently wounded in the advance on Port Hudson. In the earliest days of the War during the Baltimore disorders he "mingled during the day and following night with the populace and rioters gathered all possible information and on the following morning returned to Washington and laid the information before the military authorities. Communications with Annapolis being cut off he accepted the hazardous position of bearer of dispatches from the War Department to Gen'l Butler and of the seventeen messengers sent on that mission was the only one who succeeded in reaching his destination without arrest and that was accomplished only by a night march on foot of twenty-five miles in a country with which he was unfamiliar and by swimming the Patuxent within sound of the voices of the enemies sentinels." <br/>OCLC 768761257 1- Allen Cy Pub.
