This original newspaper contains a front page headline: "WHO IS ABRAHAM LINCOLN?" with a 3/4 column long "folksy" report of the early life of ABRAHAM LINCOLN, describing him as "honest Abe". It contains one of the earliest mentions I have seen of Abraham Lincoln characterized as "Honest Abe". “Honest Abe” was a nickname that Abraham Lincoln embraced with pride. He believed in his own integrity and worked diligently to maintain his reputation as an honest politician and lawyer –something that was not always easy in either of those fields.Abraham Lincoln’s name has symbolized integrity, trust and honesty for more than 150 years. Lincoln was called “Honest Abe” because he acted ethically, particularly as a practicing attorney for the quarter century at the bar before he became the 16th President of the United States in 1861.* Very good condition.
