This is the state of the Union address .The inside cover states , on the motion of Mr Clark from the committee on printing resolved that 20,000 copy's of the President's Message and the foreign correspondence , be published in one volume; that 10,000 copy's of the Presidents messages and reports of secretaries of the various proper departments, be published in a separate volume ; and that 5000 copy's of the messages and accompanying documents be published attest: EM. ETHERIDGE clerk Condition bumps at corners cloth needs to be stabilized at the spine but at the moment its is all in tact some fraying at the top and bottom.

LINCOLN History of this book , it was bought with a collection of books from Senator James Roosevelt , son of president Franklin D Roosevelt At Bonhams product 2004 ,cop'y of listing Lot No: 7205 Assorted books from the library of James Roosevelt, approximately 83 volumes incl.: Thackeray, William Makepeace. [Works]. London: 1869. 3/4 maroon calf over marbled boards, t.e.g., with Roosevelt bookplate to each volume, 20 volumes. * Adams, John. Correspondence. Boston: 1809.

It seems like most of this lot came down from the Roosevelt family and since his father was President is it possible that this copy was from the White House when the Roosevelt's lived there as it has passed through the family they were in the White House and there is the name Lincoln written in the inside cover, we have no idea who wrote the name there . This is a great lot for those into the civil war, stamp collecting Lincoln or all the history of that period .
