Desirable first edition of the first appearance of the 13th Amendment in book form. This desirable Civil War-era edition features the text of the Declaration of Independence and United States Constitution, including the recently passed 13th Amendment abolishing slavery. 

A far, far inferior example just sold at auction for $850.00. 

[Various Authors]. The Declaration of Independence and Constitution of the United States of America. New-York. R. Spalding. 1865. 86pp.

A very good copy, bound in cloth thats just ever so slightly worn through at the extremities. Generally solid, with generally bright pages, with a minor handling stain on the foredge. As nice a copy as we have seen.
