Lincoln Memorial Woodcut Broadside

c. 1865 "Memento Mori" Lincoln Memorial Broadside, Very Fine.
Broadside measuring, 14.5" x 10.5". A very nice woodcut with a bold black bust portrait of Lincoln, surmounted by "Memento Mori" in large vivid block letters. Beneath him are printed his birth and assassination dates, and "Just of his word -- Observant of his right." A thick 1.25" black woodcut border is further accented by 13 stars surrounding the whole. Two minor repaired tears at top center and left border do not detract from the impressive visual strength of this historic broadside. A very nice print, large in size and ready to be framed for display.
