President Lincoln Mourning Ribbon Worn at His Funeral in 1865
Abraham Lincoln (/ˈlɪŋkən/; February 12, 1809 – April 15, 1865) was an American lawyer and statesman who served as the 16th president of the United States from 1861 until his assassination in 1865. Lincoln led the nation through the American Civil War, the country’s greatest moral, cultural, constitutional, and political crisis. He succeeded in preserving the Union, abolishing slavery, bolstering the federal government, and modernizing the U.S. economy.
Abraham Lincoln mourning ribbon from his 4 May 1865 funeral held in his hometown of Springfield, Illinois. Interesting white lace and black satin design, with small 1″ x.75″ copper-embossed framed albumen photograph of President Lincoln at center. After Lincoln’s assassination, his body was transported by a funeral train that departed 21 April 1865 and traveled 1,654 miles from Washington D.C. to Springfield, tracing the route Lincoln had traveled to Washington as President-elect. Also includes an envelope with a handwritten note stating that this ribbon was worn by a student at Jacksonville College in Illinois. Very good condition overall. Sold for $1,512.
