Original Pencil Wash Drawing of “Old Abe” (attributed to) Marcus Baldwin used on Securities and Documents.Handsomely drawn version of "Old Abe," the "Live Wisconsin War Eagle" that was not used on Federal Currency, but did appear on stock certificates and perhaps other documents. Framed 24.5cm by 30.0cm overall with 11.0cm by 16.0cm drawing loosely affixed to board. Unsigned, but attributed to Baldwin by Glenn Jackson. Different versions of the vignette were adapted from the artwork. Attached to the verso loosely in a sleeve is an intaglio die proof vignette progress with slight difference and a period photo card of "Old Abe." Framed later on its chipboard backing at the Old Print Shop, NYC. Overall Fine.
