Springfield: The Lincoln Centennial Association, 1911. Hardcover. Small 4to. Limp brown suede. 40pp, xv. Frontispiece, 7 full-page sepia-tone portraits. Very good.

Program of the third annual banquet of this association, printed by the Roycrofters. Reverend Thomas D. Logan introduces J. Otis Humphrey and other speakers -- including President William Howard Taft. A quite nice copy of a delicate booklet whose binding often deteriorates badly. Not the usual garnet or burgundy color seen, this copy also features more than the usual four sepia-tone portraits. Suede doesn’t age particularly well and suede yapped edges fare even worse – making this nice copy exceptionally above average. MONAGHAN 1993.
