Rare print shows Abraham Lincoln on horseback...
Item # 700693
August 02, 1862
FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED, New York, August 2, 1862 The front page shows "Rebel Barbarities..." and "President Lincoln...Reviewing the Federal Army...", the latter print showing Lincoln on horseback. I'm not sure we've seen another periodical print of Lincoln on horseback.
Other prints inside include: "The Battles Before Richmond" "Rebel Balloon Reconnaissance..." & Battle of Charles City Road" "...Battle of Savage's Station" and "Battle of Gaines' Hill".
The doublepage centerfold is a large, sweeping & dramatic print of: "The Battles Before Richmond--Battle of Malvern Hills, Near Turkey Bend, James River Va."
Sixteen pages, pages are bound out of order so doublepage prints will appear together, the "...Battle of Gaines Hill..." doublepage has some loss at the central fold; the "...Malvern Hills..." doublepage is tipped in.
Sixteen pages, minor wear, wear at the doublepage print noted above, otherwise good.
