JOHNSON, Edward S. (compiler).

[Danville, IL: Illinois Printing Company], n.y., [possibly 1903]. Paperback. 8vo. Stiff beige linen-textured wrappers. 25pp. Frontispiece, illustrations. Very good. Bit of light soiling to outer wrappers, else tight and nice. Monaghan notes this Danville variant of this oft-reprinted essay, but hazards no date. Monument custodian Johnson discusses the construction of the monument, the Lincoln funeral, adds famous Lincoln quotations, illustrates Lincoln's supposed "autobiography," etc. Uncommon. MONAGHAN 1408 variant. Item #31648
