This collection consists of miscellaneous ephemera,
primarily printed material, about Abraham Lincoln.
Collection materials are in English
This collection consists of miscellaneous ephemera, primarily printed material, about
Abraham Lincoln. It is part of the larger Bissett-Witherspoon Collection. It
includes a manuscript that was, until 2007, identified as an original Abraham
Lincoln holograph manuscript (see "Forgery" note); a small amount of other
manuscript material relating to Lincoln, his era, or Lincoln collecting; facsimiles
of Lincoln materials; magazine articles; newspaper clippings; photographs and
illustrations; programs; pamphlets; brochures and other items with a Lincoln theme;
and several Lincoln bibliographies.
Forgery note (added November 6, 2008): In 2007, the manuscript "On Administration"
was identified as a forgery, rather than an authentic Abraham Lincoln holograph
document. The Director and Editor of The Papers of Abraham Lincoln, Dr. Daniell W.
Stowell, confirmed this conclusion in a letter dated September 5, 2007 (this letter
is now on file in the collection. See folder 8.1).
This collection is arranged in nine series.
This collection is open and available for research use.
Copyright restrictions may apply.
[Item description]
Bissett-Witherspoon Lincoln Ephemera Collection, 1830-1958 (Cage 174)
Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections, Washington State University Libraries, Pullman, WA.
Mrs. A. W. Witherspoon (Eda Mauseth Witherspoon) donated the Bissett Collection of
Lincolniana, of which these materials are a part, to the Washington State University
Libraries in 1941. Clark Prescott Bissett, former owner of the collection,
subsequently donated more materials (books, periodicals, and printed ephemera), and
these were added.
This portion of the Bissett-Witherspoon Lincoln Collection was arranged and described by Torchie Corey and Terry Abraham in April and May of 1974.
The monographs in the Bissett-Witherspoon Collection were cataloged separately, and
several Pamphlets from Series 6 have been removed for separate cataloging: items
15-24, 27-28, 30-40, and 42-55.
