1872003726Privately printed. HAYWARD Abraham. Lady Palmerston. A Biographical Sketch. A signed presentation copy with autograph correspondence of Viscountess Palmerston and Lord Palmerston bound in. London reprinted by permission from The Times of September 15 1869; dated June 1872. Slim 8vo 21 pp. Contemporary full green morocco boards with dense gilt fillet borders and elaborate gilt corner and frame tooling upper cover lettered in gilt; spine gilt ruled. Rubbing to extremities minor wear at corners but a handsome and well-preserved presentation binding. Internally clean with manuscript material neatly bound in at the front. Very good. Presentation copy inscribed by the author to Alfred Montgomery with the inscription leaf bound in at the front: "Alfred Montgomery Esq. with best regards A.H." Bound in with the pamphlet are five autograph letters addressed to Alfred Montgomery: four from Emily Temple Viscountess Palmerston and one from Henry John Temple 3rd Viscount Palmerston dated 1856 and signed "Palmerston". The Palmerston letter was written during his first term as Prime Minister 1855-1858. The Lady Palmerston letters concern social arrangements and engagements. The pamphlet itself was privately issued marked "Not for Sale" and printed shortly after Lady Palmerston's death in 1869. Hayward's sketch is one of the earliest biographical appreciations of her role within Whig political and social life. Alfred Montgomery 1814-1896 was a senior Admiralty clerk private secretary to Lord Wellesley later Commissioner of Stamps and Taxes and of the Inland Revenue and a well-known Victorian society figure. According to contemporary accounts he was a well known dandy that had 'known domestic trouble and been rewarded by non-domestic success'. He was clearly closely associated with the Palmerstons and both wrote to him personally with the letters that have been bound in. A highly unusual Palmerston association volume most likely a commemorative memento put together by Montgomery. The result being a privately printed biographical text authorial presentation inscription and contemporary autograph correspondence of both Lady Palmerston and the Prime Minister himself preserved in a presentation binding. .

1865136231865. Lincoln Abraham. Late Civil War portrait of Abraham Lincoln derived from a February 1865 photograph taken during the final months of the American Civil War. The image records Lincoln near the conclusion of the conflict that preserved the Union and ended legal slavery in the United States. Created shortly before his assassination in April 1865 the portrait captures a visibly worn president whose appearance reflected the physical and political strain of leading the nation through four years of war. The photograph was long attributed to Mathew Brady but was actually taken by government photographer Lewis Emory Walker and issued commercially through the New York photographic publishers E. & H. T. Anthony. The portrait belongs to a group of late images that document Lincoln's appearance in the closing weeks of the war.<br /> <br /> Stereoview photograph published by Keystone View Company reproducing the 1865 Walker portrait of Abraham Lincoln. Keystone stereograph number 92. The mount bears the Keystone biographical text about Lincoln on the verso together with the company's copyright notice. A handwritten pencil notation on the reverse references the earlier attribution of the photograph to Mathew Brady. The portrait shows Lincoln with closely cut hair a style that contemporary accounts suggested was recommended by his barber in preparation for the creation of a life mask by sculptor Clark Mills.<br /> <br /> Photographic portraits of Lincoln produced during the final months of the Civil War became some of the most widely circulated visual representations of the president after his assassination in April 1865. Images such as this stereographic reproduction contributed to the creation of Lincoln's public memory in the late nineteenth century when photographic publishers issued stereographs and other prints that allowed Americans to view notable figures through emerging visual media. Stereographs played an important role in popular visual culture during this period offering audiences three dimensional photographic views through stereoscopic viewers and distributing portraits of political leaders to a wide national audience. Light wear consistent with age and handling. Overall condition good to very good. unknown
