Carl Sandburg and Lincoln

[Dan Pearson]

I enjoy participating in eBay auctions, and spend what my wife tells me is far too much time browsing the listings. One curious item I found long ago is related to Carl Sandburg and Ralph Newman, the founder of Chicago's Abraham Lincoln Book Shop. Sandburg and Newman were fast friends, and I can picture the author making this little piece of art over a drink and cigars. I will refrain from commenting on the asking price save for saying that it's been listed on eBay, with no takers, for many months. Below is the link:
