April 15, 1865 New York Times Newspaper: Lincoln Shot !
April 15, 1865-Dated Abraham Lincoln Assassination Issue, New York Times, "AWFUL EVENT. President Lincoln Shot by an Assassin." 8 pages, Folio, measuring 15.75" x 21", Fine.
Iconic Lincoln Assassination edition of The New-York Times, New York, April 15, 1865, Vol 14, no 4230. Headline in left column reads: "AWFUL EVENT. President Lincoln Shot by an Assassin." Transmits the detailed report which came at 12:30 a.m. that morning, with no word as to the identity of the assassins and another "midnight" report that the President was dead (he did not in fact succumb to his injury until about 7 a.m.). This is one of the all-time most infamous issues of the New York Times, highly sought after. Shows expected wrinkles, folds and some age tone at the lower right quadrant and with some loss at the 3rd page center top edge and front page lower corner area. Well worthy of display, this is one of the more historic and truly tragic newspaper reports in American history.
