1865 ABRAHAM LINCOLN. Swatch of Mourning Cloth from Lincoln's Funeral Train Commentary The Bill was read threeA wonderfully provenanced piece of memorabilia from the assassination and funeral of Abraham Lincoln. Neatly mounted on a period image of Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Jackson, then wax sealed, and signed by his Lincoln's private secretary, John Hay. A piece of his shirt from the assassination was recently offered for $25,000 $30,000. This a much more affordable piece of Lincoln history and with wonderful provenance.
