Honest Abe
"Taken from original crayon from life, by Chas. Barry shortly after Lincoln's nomination. Intended for use as campaign picture. Considerable historic interest attaches to this picture through the fact that the New York of the campaign committee refused to use it on the grounds that it would not enhance Mr. Lincoln's popularity with Eastern people."
