Image of Lincoln, and the Republican platform...



Item # 702432

June 22, 1860

GOODHUE COUNTY REPUBLICAN, Red Wing, Minnesota, June 22, 1860  The top of page 2 has one of the better political notices supporting Lincoln for President we have seen, and much desired by collectors.
Although the text is simple and typical: "For President, ABRAHAM LINCOLN, of Illinois.  For Vice President, HANNIBAL HAMLIN, of Maine" the focus is the rare image of a beardless Abraham Lincoln above it. We have only found a few newspapers that had an image of Lincoln in the political notices.
The back page has nearly a full column taken up with: "The Republican Platform".
Four pages, nice condition.

Item from last month's catalog - #361 released for December, 2025.
