[LINCOLN FUNERAL]. 6 CDVs of Lincoln memorial services and buildings draped in mourning, incl. the Congressional Committee posed in front of Lincoln's Springfield home on the day of his funeral.

6 CDVs on cardstock mounts, including the following scenes:

CDV featuring a period copy image of a photograph and mount showing the Congressional Committee posed in front Lincoln's home on the day of his funeral, Springfield, Illinois, 3 May 1865. Philadelphia: Broadbent & Co., ca 1865. The mount appears to include the names of members of the Committee posing for the image. The negative was almost certainly taken by Samuel M. Fassett of Chicago who produced a number of images of the Chicago and Springfield Funeral. The Committee, which accompanied Lincoln's body from Washington on its multi-city tour, stands in front of the dead president's crepe draped home. Images of the Springfield funeral are uncommon, and this one especially so. We could find but a single institutional holding of the original photograph at the Wisconsin Historical Society.
