Collection of Lincoln-Themed Prints
Item Details
A collection of three Abraham Lincoln-themed print. The lot includes a pair of small offset lithograph reproductions of original silhouettes of Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln. These images depict the figures in thick black fields of ink standing against paler, more detailed backgrounds.

Both pieces are presented behind glass in thin wooden frames with eyehooks at their top edges for hanging. The lot also includes an offset lithographic reproduction of an original oil painting of the president. It is matted in white and presented behind glass in a dark-stained wooden frame with a hanging wire.
