Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. Booth Shooting Lincoln. April 29, 1865

Description

Dramatic cover picture of Booth shooting Lincoln with a gun to the back of his head. Original Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper dated April 29, 1865. Many illustrations of events surrounding Lincoln's assassination. Guaranteed to be original, all pages and illustrations intact. The spine is irregular, but all pages are connected. There are a couple inches of separation along the top affecting the front page. This is the only publication that had a cover picture of Booth shooting Lincoln that I am aware of.
