Soldiers And Statesmen. Library Of Otto Orren Fisher
This unusual 12 x 14 inch book contains about 34 amazing mezzotints of various statesmen, including four rare prints of Abraham Lincoln. We have included several pictures, and all except one is protected by interleaving paper. There is no publishers page or publishing date. We believe it is late 19th century. Only prints are bound together. A library plate shows this was part of the collection of Otto Orren Fisher, a rare book collector in the early 1900’s. The name on the cover, E. A. Armstrong, perhaps refers to the E. A. Armstrong company of Detroit.
The book itself contains mezzotints in excellent condition. But the binding of the book is in poor condition as shown.
