Late-19th-century New York Herald reprint of the original 1865 Abraham Lincoln assassination coverage, produced decades later for commemorative and educational circulation. This example incorporates a prominent Grain-O coffee substitute advertisement, a hallmark of 1880s–1890s reprint editions.
This is not an 1865 original issue, and it is not a modern reproduction. It is a period reprint, created when the assassination was already entering historical memory — a category collectors actively pursue.
