Prod. Code: ALR45

Abraham Lincoln period cased memorial tribute. Beautiful sixth-plate octagon thermoplastic case. Know as the "Scroll or Floral" pattern, this case is considered scarce in Union cases. A very ornate floral relief case, containing a carte-de-viste period photo of assassinated President Lincoln. Period as you can still see the irregular edge cuts to the cdv photo. The hinges are nice and tight with no play in them and the closure tab latches as well. There is one small chip along the right hand side border on the reverse side, otherwise this example is as nice as they come. Nice, plush maroon velvet pad complete with the original brass mat. Hard to find cases for those octagonal images.
