Exeter Fine Arts

    On the eve of the 200-year-mark since Abe Lincoln’s birth (February 12, 1810), it seems fitting to highlight Lincoln-related items from our stock of historical prints and literature.
    Mr. Lincoln came to Exeter, NH (our fair city) in 1860 to visit his son Robert Todd, a student at Phillips Exeter Academy. During that visit the then-Presidential candidate made a memorable, extemporaneous speech at the Exeter Town Hall. (To note, he followed that speech with similar, commissioned ones in Dover and Portsmouth, but wisely spoke to Exonians free of charge, and secured the Presidency later that year). All of this and more is chronicled in 1929’s rare Abraham Lincoln in New Hampshire, for sale (among others) here. We’re still combing our wares for Lincoln stuff, so check back with us for updates.
