This lot consists of three pieces were acquired by Dr. John K. Lattimer for further study about 1979. (A) An unmarked brown leatherette document or map case with slip-on cover. (B) Small fold-up wallet with closing strap, brown leather. (C) Larger light brown leather bill fold with maker’s stamp of "C.A. Cobb, Lancaster Mass". Two internal pockets with cover flaps at either end. Two central sections for holding bills by folding flaps. Lightly pressed border lines on the exterior. On internal flap is marked “Loan Accounts” in old ink. Another is lightly marked in small letters “WL 5.” The exterior is inscribed in black ink script on one side, “J. Wilkes Booth” and on the other “J. Wilkes Booth – Baltimore Md.” The wallet and billfold seem to have been acquired together and are accompanied by two short, woven pink ribbons that likely tied them and copies of two 1979 letters between Lattimer and a researcher on whether they might be connected to pieces reportedly recovered from Booth’s body when killed at the Garrett barn in 1865. A note with the letters addressed to “JKL” with the question “Do you want to keep these” would indicate he was not satisfied with them. CONDITION: Very good overall. No COA.
