Group of four “Broughton’s Monthly Planet Reader and Astrological Journals” 1) Philadelphia, September 1 Vol. 1 No 6. Nine pages, 5 3/4” x 9”. Image of a clean shaven Abraham Lincoln on cover. In the Lincoln article, Broughton writes: “ … Mr. Lincoln has a rather fortunate Nativity for becoming popular, and for rising in the world with care and industry. But we are sorry to say that he has some rather unfortunate aspects coming on … all of which aspects make us inclined to judge that he will be defeated this next coming Presidential election …” In his “The Presidential Election” article, Broughton notes: “ We are still of the opinion that S.A. Douglas, will be the next President …” 2) Philadelphia, August 1, 1860 Vol. 1 No. 5. Image of Stephen Douglas on cover. 3) Philadelphia, October 1, 1860. Vol 1 No. 7. Image of John Breckenridge on cover. 4) Philadelphia, November 1, 1860. Vol. 1 No. 8 Image of John Bell, the Union Candidate for President on cover. Bottom left corner of last page torn.
