Item Description

This rare event ticket is from Jan 5th 1870.

Fit in on old 4 by 6 frame

Front shows photograph of a painting by A.H. Ritchie, of Lincoln with his cabinet reading the Emancipation Proclamation

The Lincoln Union Social Club, a pro-Republican party function, held its first ball in New York City in 1870. These two ephemeral items, tickets for the first and second balls, are not to be confused with the invitations that preceded them. Of the two, the tickets may be a rarer survival. We know of only two others, including an 1870 ticket at the Library of Congress. Matches both sides to library Of congress photos.
