Abraham Lincoln Signed CDV as President — John Hay Certifies Signature as Authentic on Verso
Exceptionally rare Abraham Lincoln signed carte-de-visite photograph, taken by Alexander Gardner in 1861 and signed as President. Signed ”A. Lincoln” below the seated portrait of Lincoln. John Hay, Lincoln’s private secretary, authenticates the signature upon the verso by writing, ”I certify that the President’s signature is genuine / John Hay”. With ”Brady’s National Portrait Gallery” backstamp. Measures 2.5” x 3.75”. Very good with some foxing and wear, but with a strong signature by Lincoln. With provenance from Profiles in History and with a COA from Charles Hamilton. Sold for $49,913.
Currier & Ives Hand-Colored Lithograph Measuring — 19th Century Print Remains Boldly Colored
Currier and Ives was a successful American printmaking firm based in New York City from 1835 to 1907 headed first by Nathaniel Currier, and later jointly with his partner James Merritt Ives. The prolific firm produced prints from paintings by fine artists as black and white lithographs that were hand colored. Lithographic prints could be reproduced quickly and purchased inexpensively, and the firm called itself “the Grand Central Depot for Cheap and Popular Prints” and advertised its lithographs as “colored engravings for the people”. The firm adopted the name “Currier and Ives” in 1857.
Beautiful Currier & Ives hand-colored lithograph entitled “The Life of a Hunter. ‘A tight fix’”. Produced in 1861 on wove paper, lithograph measures 28″ x 21.5″, framed to 39″ x 32.25″. Very well-preserved with deep, rich colors. A few small repaired tears to margin, with two extending slightly into the image at top and bottom right, though nearly indiscernible; also with faint discoloration to margins, else near fine condition. A rare lithograph so well preserved by the storied print makers. Sold for $31,680.
Scarce campaign broadside for John Bell and Edward Everett, the candidates for the Constitutional Union party in the 1860 Presidential campaign. Lithograph is the scarcest of 19th century Currier and Ives broadsides, hand-colored by the storied print makers, and with full margins not usually found on this broadside. Strong unionists who believed that slavery was protected by the U.S. Constitution, the candidacy of Bell and Everett split the southern vote, effectively giving the election to Abraham Lincoln. Their campaign banner reads at top, ”Liberty and Union Now and Forever One and Inseparable / No North, No South, No East, No West, Nothing But the Union”. With Currier and Ives copyright in 1860 at bottom, which also reads, ”Grand National Union Banner for 1860 / The Candidates and Their Platform”. The candidates’ names of John Bell, of Tennessee and Edward Everett of Massachusetts are also featured in the banner. Broadside is hand-colored by Currier and Ives, with unfaded rich, dark colors. Lithograph measures 13.5” x 18”, with original borders. Expert restoration including rice paper backing, though no restoration to the coloring except to a small spot of scuffing just below the tassels between the red velvet curtains. Some foxing to margins. Overall in very good to near fine condition. Sold for $12,600.
Abraham Lincoln 1860 Campaign Ribbon With the Desirable “Cooper Union” Photographic Portrait
Abraham Lincoln campaign ribbon for the 1860 presidential election, featuring his photographic portrait taken by Mathew Brady during the session at Cooper Union, where Lincoln delivered the speech that catapulted him to national prominence. This ribbon is among the most desirable of Lincoln campaign mementos, also bearing Lincoln’s printed signature at bottom. Ribbon measures 2.5″ x 7.25″. Some soiling at edges and a few small spots of foxing, but Lincoln’s image is nearly defect free. Very good condition. Sold for $2,375.
CDV Photograph of an 19th Century African American Wet Nurse From Savannah, Georgia
Rare CDV photograph of an African American wet nurse, posing with the child she cared for. With backstamp of J.N Wilson photography studio in Savannah Georgia on verso, who established his studio shortly before the Civil War; this photo is likely from the 1860s, evidenced by a light colored mount, square corners on the photo, and coloring to the photograph which was popular in the 1860s. CDVs such as this are uncommon, with wealthy families sometimes choosing to document the relationship between the African American wet nurse and her Causacian baby. With CDV number 2083 handwritten in pencil on verso. CDV measures 2.5″ x 4″. Mild wear and rubbing to mount, overall very good condition. Sold for $2,439.
