The boards with edgewear, rebacked with the original spine laid down, loss to the paper of the joints (the front joint exposed), trace of label removal to foot of spine, internally very fresh indeed. John Wanamaker's copy, with a tipped-in presentation card "The Postmaster General" with Wanameker's signature (Wanamaker was subscriber no 81), with a typed letter signed by Wanamaker; Graham Nash's copy, with his bookplate.

The first major reference on the subject of Lincoln's photographic portraits, beautifully produced with unrivaled plates taken directly from the originals. The book is quite rare in commerce, and was printed on heavy hand-made paper.
