CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Two highly significant Abraham Lincoln-related items dominated the field at RR Auction’s Remarkable Rarities event on September 23. Complete results can be viewed at LiveAuctioneers.

Topping the sale was a Lincoln pen-signed first edition of the Lincoln-Douglas Debates, hammering at $475,000 and selling for $617,500 against an estimate of $100,000-$150,000. The sale began at $10,000 and registered dozens of bids before reaching the final price.

The 1858 debates between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas for a United States Senate seat from the state of Illinois are still considered a landmark series of events in American political history. Though Douglas would win the election, the visibility of the debates created national awareness for Lincoln, who would go on to win the GOP nomination in 1860 and eventually become president.

As expected, two front-row balcony tickets from Ford’s Theatre in Washington, DC bearing the date of the night of the Lincoln assassination sold well above their estimate, hammering at $210,000 and ultimately selling for $273,000. The ticket holders watching the comedy play Our American Cousin could have witnessed John Wilkes Booth leaping from the private box occupied by the president and the First Lady, Mary Todd Lincoln.

A personal check made out to “William Johnson (Colored),” signed by Abraham Lincoln as president, also overperformed, selling for $80,000 ($104,000 with buyer’s premium) against an estimate of $30,000-$40,000. Johnson was Lincoln’s White House valet, to whom Lincoln paid $5.00 with a check numbered only 12 in the account’s series.

Two Steve Jobs-related items also did well. First was an early Apple Computer Company check signed by Jobs in his famous lower-case style for payment to Graphics West, one of Apple’s early printing vendors. It sold for $45,000 ($58,500 with buyer’s premium) against a $25,000-$30,000 estimate.

Believed to be the only Steve Jobs-signed iPad every to come to auction (Jobs was notoriously averse to signing things, particularly this late in his career), it sold for $32,000 ($41,600 with buyer’s premium). It had been estimated at $10,000-$20,000. Jobs would pass away from cancer just 18 months after giving the first-generation iPad to a Hawaii doctor who had treated him.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — A set of two front-row balcony tickets for the April 14, 1865 performance of Our American Cousin at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, DC leads a stunning array of historically important lots at RR Auction’s Remarkable Rarities event on Saturday, September 23. The catalog is available for bidding now at LiveAuctioneers.

President Abraham Lincoln’s assassination at Ford’s Theatre remains a major turning point in American history. Formerly in the Forbes Collection of Historical Documents and auctioned by Christie’s in 2002, the exceedingly rare tickets are estimated at $100,000-$150,000.

Political Debates between Hon. Abraham Lincoln and Hon. Stephen A. Douglas, a two-volume set issued in 1860, features an autograph by Lincoln, one of just four instances of him signing this publication in ink. The 1858 debates helped Lincoln win national visibility, leading to his successful election to the presidency in a crowded field in 1860. The lot is estimated at $100,000-$150,000.

Apollo 17 was the final lunar mission for the Apollo program. Commander Gene Cernan conducted an extra-vehicular activity (EVA), better known as a moon walk, during the landing. His cuff checklist, reminding him of his duties while outside the lunar lander, is included in the sale, with an estimate of $300,000-$400,000.

Dr. Niels Bohr made fundamental contributions to the understanding of atomic structure and quantum theory and received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922. In 1957, he was given the Atoms for Peace award by Presiden Dwight Eisenhower. That medal, along with two others, carry a collective estimate of $250,000-$300,000.
