LINCOLN GARFIELD MCKINLEY U.S. Presidents Memoriam Litho MONASCH J.H DE BRUYN

An antique Lithograph issued in 1901 in memoriam of three assassinated U.S. Presidents, distributed by the Swedish newspaper
Svenska Amerikanska Posten in Minneapolis.

This Rare piece of Americana for your collection. It is a framed memorial Lithograph issued to commemorate the three U.S. Presidents that
were assassinated during their term of office (the only U.S. Presidents assassinated up to that date). The Lithograph was printed by The Monasch Litho Company
in Minneapolis, and was distributed by the Swedish newspaper Svenska Amerikanska Posten, also in Minneapolis. It carries a 1901 copyright date, by the artist J.H. De Bruyn.

The Lithograph shows portraits of the three assassinated Presidents, J.A. Garfield, Abe Lincoln, and W. McKinley. Below the portraits is the image of a Eagle, Shield, and Sad Woman
slumped over a Tombstone that carries the legend: IN MEMORIAM \"Gods Will, not ours be done\".

The Lithograph is in a wood frame with gesso decoration and is behind glass. The frame measures 21 3/4 inches high, 25-3/4 inches wide, and has some chipping of decorated
gesso at the edges. I am sorry about the glare in some photos from camera and lights.

I have not removed the Lithograph from the frame. I do not see any edge tears. I cannot see the very edge of the print of course. There is a very light moisture stains near the
edge under the right side of W. McKinley, see photos. The paper itself appears to be in very nice shape, colors bright. I rate the overall condition of this piece as very good to excellent shape.
One of the nicest I\'ve seen out there.

I was able to find only one other example of this image, and that was in the U.S. Library of Congress.
It appears to be scarce, and is an exceptional piece of Americana.Shipping is a guesstimate. I will adjust once packaged and quotes are obtained from Fed-ex ground or USPS for most reasonable costs.

Please see photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
