Dated and signed by Howard Finster’Jan 18 1989 2:34: Past Midnight’. Flaws’ in panels are natural to the wood. This piece’s writing is directly on the wood base (no paper applied to base). Howard didn’t paint in Lincoln’s beard, but did give him’Elvis’ sideburns! Also rather unique to this piece is the addition of glitter Finster added to some of the artwork on the front (see picture).
