EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant piece of history - the tavern license granted to none other than Abraham Lincoln and William F. Berry in Springfield, Illinois on March 6,1835. The document itself is a testament to Lincoln's early entrepreneurial spirit and his involvement in the local community. Handwritten with meticulous care, this artifact showcases Lincoln's signature alongside Berry's as they embark on their joint venture. It serves as a reminder that even before becoming one of America's most revered presidents, Lincoln was deeply rooted in his community and actively engaged in various endeavors. The tavern license not only sheds light on Lincoln's personal life but also provides insight into the social fabric of early American society. Taverns played an integral role as gathering places for locals to share news, engage in political discourse, and forge connections. This license symbolizes the importance of such establishments during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to a bygone era when Abraham Lincoln was just beginning his journey towards greatness. It serves as a tangible link between our present-day understanding of him as President and his humble beginnings in Springfield. Preserved by The Granger Collection from New York, this photograph allows us to appreciate the rich tapestry of American history while honoring one of its most iconic figures - Abraham Lincoln.
