Framed Abraham Lincoln Pinbacks Portrait Card Centennial Souvenir Not Campaign For Sale

Framed Lincoln group. Two celluloid portrait pinback buttons and one embossed card with an oval portrait, in a silver-tone frame. Frame labels read “1909 / Republican Convention” and “C 1864.” Those labels are later and are not backed by the objects.
Both buttons are celluloid, paper under a plastic cover. That type of button dates from 1896 on, not from the 1864 campaign. Real 1864 Lincoln pieces are ferrotype photos in brass frames. These are commemorative portrait buttons, consistent with 1909 Lincoln centennial souvenirs. The card is embossed paper with a small portrait, sleeved. No photographer imprint is visible. Not described as an 1864 ferrotype or CDV.
