Description

A remarkable presidential pairing

Extraordinary pairing of bold ink signatures, "A. Lincoln" and "Millard Fillmore, April 24, 1865," on an off-white 4.75 x 3.5 album page. Removably matted with portraits of both presidents to an overall size of 16.5 x 9.75. In fine condition. The consignor notes that this originates from an autograph album belonging to John Ganson, who represented New York in the House of Representatives from 1863-1865. The date of Fillmore's signature—just nine days after President Lincoln's tragic death—is particularly notable.
