1859 ABRAHAM LINCOLN. First Published Biography of Abraham Lincoln. With a Bullet through It! ZZArtwork *Missions in Monte VideoVery desirable, the present includes the first published biography of Abraham Lincoln extant. Last offered at auction in 2022 where it fetched $625. The present example inscribed by the author, Charles Lanman, to George Coit Esq, the Buffalo industrialist. Inexplicably, the volume has been penetrated by a bullet, high center, which has proceeded only through the board and indenting the preliminaries. The "wound" is clearly of some age. Accidental?
