1860 Abraham-Lincoln Campaign Ribbon - Unlisted Design
c. 1860 Presidential Campaign Abraham Lincoln Silk Ribbon, with a Portrait of a "Beardless" Abraham Lincoln, Unlisted Design in the Sullivan-Fischer reference, Fine.
A nicely designed 1860 Presidential Campaign Silk Ribbon measuring 2.5" x 5.25" with a Black printed Portrait of a Beardless Abraham Lincoln on light Green Silk, shown beneath a billowing American Flag with an integral banner reading: "Our Choice For President." Bottom edge lacking the word "OF (ILLINOIS)" in the caption below the portrait and large printed text "ABRAHAM LINCOLN,". Some light spotting and tone, but solid overall though frayed at bottom. The bluish color of the silk is an attractive feature. This is the same Lincoln bust design used on Sullivan-Fischer AL-14, -15, -16, and -18, which ties it to other known Silk Ribbons and indicates that these varieties all were possibly produced by the same source.
