Unused, commemorative postal envelope issued at Gettysburg to celebrate the 119th Anniversary of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Illustration at left of a seated President Lincoln writing at a table. He is putting the finishing touches on his now immortal Gettysburg Address. This scene took place at the historic David Wills House located on the square in Gettysburg. David Wills was a prominent Gettysburg attorney who was the person most responsible for inviting President Lincoln to Gettysburg to give a few appropriate words at the dedication of the Gettysburg National Soldier's Cemetery. Taking the train from Washington, D.C., to Gettysburg, Mr. Lincoln was an overnight guest at the Wills home on the evening of November 18, 1863. Imprint around the vignette: "Lincoln at the Wills House, Gettysburg, 119th Anniversary." There are three United States postage stamps affixed to the upper right side of the cover, with the blue 3 cents stamp with bust of Lincoln honoring the Gettysburg Address including some words from the speech. Tied on with a bold postmark, Gettysburg, Pa., Nov. 19, 1982, 17325, and Lincoln's Gettysburg Address Station. This commemorates the date, November 19th, the day in 1863 when President Lincoln gave his "Gettysburg Address" at the dedication of the Gettysburg Soldier's National Cemetery. Near mint condition. A very desirable Lincoln/Gettysburg Address collectible.
