This uniquely original 36" tall cane has an outstanding, well carved and highly detailed profile portrait of a bearded Abraham Lincoln. It was carved of two pieces of walnut, with smooth, decorated knob end and a typical tapered shaft, no maker or date. The High Relief Portrait of Abraham Lincoln is carved on the upper portion of the shaft, 6" from the knob top, and the portrait is the width of one side of the cane. The end tip has a 1.5" nickel-brass and steel ferrule, with the initials “K. & H.” stamped along the edge. This cane was likely made for the 1864 Presidential Campaign for Lincoln’s second term. In any event, this is a truly wonderful item for Abraham Lincoln, Presidential, Political, and Cane collectors alike.
