"Latest Portrait of the President" in Harper's Weekly (June 11, 1864)

New York, 1864. First Edition. 0 pp. Disbound. COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL ISSUE, NOT A REPRINT. A RARE HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. Wrinkling and wear to spine where disbound and some foxing. Of special note in this issue is the "Latest Portrait" of Lincoln with his two secretaries, Mr. NIcholas and Mr. Hay (p. 373). Lincoln looks surprisingly young in this portrait, but, as usual, his face shows a whistful gaze. Cover story on the "Great Central Fair in Philadelphia" with 1/2 page illustration of the fair buildings on Logan Square. More illustrations by A.R. WAud of the Army of the Potomac, including a center-fold drawing, "The Struggle for the Salient, Near Spottsylvania, Virginia, May 12, 1864." Also, Chp. XXVI of "Quite Alone" by George Augustus Sala. Two illustrations on Sherman's campagin in Georgia fill a page, "Sherman's Advance--General Logan's Skirmishers Advancing Toward the Railroad at Resaca, May 13, 1864" and "Sherman's Advance--Poistion of Osterhaus's Division, Logan's Corps. on Bal Hill, Mary 14, 18640-Shelling the Railroad at Resaca," both by Theodore R. Davis. Very Good.
