    Description

    Up for sale is this rare copy of Abraham Lincoln Toni Kin qa Aesop Towoyake Kin. Translated, this is the life of Abraham Lincoln and Aesop's fables. The booklet is in the Dakota language, and was printed in 1893 by 'Indian pupils of the Santee Normal Training School' Santee Agency, Nebraska. This was a boarding school and missionary for Santee Sioux children. There is some slight staining to the cover, but the pages are clean and crisp and the binding is tight. Please see the photos included and don't hesitate to ask questions. I have many more similar pieces listed.
