Item Details
Description
This next item we are offering is an interesting lot. It consists of a framed letter or card from the custodian of Lincoln's tomb. It is dated August 31, 1934 and is addressed to a person named Constance Warren. Attached to the letter is a small piece of wood that is noted to have come from Lincoln's home in Springfield, Illinois. In addition, it includes an oak leaf from a tree at his tomb. Above the leaf, the paper has, "H.W. Fay Custodian Lincoln's Tomb Springfield, Illinois," in pressed raised letters. Someone has put this into a frame, and we did not open the frame to see if there was more information on the back side since the note and type written info seemed to cover everything. The card is approximately 8-1/2 inches x 5-1/4 inches with the frame being approximately 9-1/4 inches x 11 inches.
