Some wear to spine ends and tearing to the cloth at join of spine and upper board. Some wear to board tips. No ownership inscription and not foxed. Top edge gilt. 199 pages. Two illustrations. This was a work produced for charity the editors obtaining examples from the works of the country's leading authors written in their own hand which are here produced in facsimile. Among those included are Edgar Allan Poe Herman Melville Henry Longfellow etc. However the editors also asked Abraham Lincoln for a copy of his Gettysburg Address which had been deliverd in November 1863 and which is now regarded as one of the finest examples of public oratory in the English language. Lincoln supplied this which is the fifth and so far as is known final copy he provided of the Address. "Because of the apparent care in its preparation and in part because Lincoln provided a title and signed and dated this copy it has become the standard version of the address - - -. It is the version that is inscribed on the South Wall of the Lincoln Memorial. This draft is now displayed in the Lincoln room of the White House - - -". Accordingly this book contains in facsimile the first publication of what may be regarded as the definitive version of the Gettysburg Address. First Edition Thus. Cushings & Bailey hardcover
