Strange Dark Document signed "Abraham Lincoln". Kinda crazy but is this old or new?
Today, I found an old frame with a black picture. That's odd.
When I held it up to the light, I could see it was a darken document with handwriting so I bought it because I was curious. Turns out, it is a parchment-type document of the Gettysburg address, signed, November 19, 1863 by Abraham Lincoln. I figured it was a messed-up souvenir. On second thought.... What baffles me is why it is so darK? . Any comments? Cool find or just junk?
Please note: These photos have been lightened and adjusted to bring out the writing because the document is very dark.
