THE NEW YORK HERALD, April 21, 1865 

* Abraham Lincoln assassination funeral
* Black mourning borders


Among the one column headlines on the front page are: "IN STATE" "THE DEAD BODY IN THE CAPITAL" "THE GUARD OF HONOR" "An Immense Number of Citizens View the Remains" "The Preparations for the Funeral" "FEELING OF THE SOLDIERS" "Route Of The Remains To Springfield" and more. The entire front page is devoted to the murder of Abraham Lincoln.
A variety of post-Civil War news throughout this issue including more on Lincoln's death. All 8 pages have black borders separating the columns in memory of Lincoln.
Some light foxing, otherwise in very nice condition.
