Offering an Abraham Lincoln illustrated campaign envelope. The upper left corner features Lincoln as the incumbent candidate; below his are crossed flags rendered in red, white, and blue, with the above quote below. The image appears to be from 1863 (O-69). Thomas Le Mere would be the photographer, and the place was Mathew Brady’s gallery.  

The cover has not been postally used. Very good; with toning, and minor soiling.
