Fresh from a New York estate comes this collection of 9 albumin photographs mounted on a 10 ½" X 12 ½" album page, most likely assembled during the Civil War era. Included are 6 images of President Lincoln cabinet members, including Secretary of the Treasury Salmon Chase, Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, a rare image of Vice President Hannibal Hamlin, another equally desirable image of Lincoln's second Vice President Andrew Johnson, Lincoln's second Secretary of the Treasury William Fessenden, and Secretary of State William Seward. Also included is an image of Senator and abolitionist Charles Sumner, an image of President Lincoln, and a photograph of an unidentified man. Albumins are all fine, album page has a corner missing and age. Overall a fine collection.
