Description

A temporary exhibit at the Lincoln Museum shows how Lincoln and image-making became popular together. Engravings and lithographs of Lincoln were widely published and displayed during his presidential campaign and his time in office.

This image is the earliest mass-produced picture of Lincoln, and it was printed for the 1860 Chicago convention.
