I found a drawing of Abraham Lincoln in a 19th century sketchbook from Springfield, Illinois

hey man, very very cool, but if this is genuinely from the 1860s it might damage the 150 year old paper to even so much as touch it-make sure it's well-preserved-and hey, it might fetch a good price from a history museum!!

Clean washed hands are ok for archival reasons. The paper is extremely brittle however.

I go to estate sales. I also have a storefront and it walks in the door.
