    You can see the yrs wearing on him here from the previous picture.
  • Tonya Faye said:
    Whoa...he looks so strange in this one!
  • Lean Mice said:
    Mr. Lincoln kind of looks like my uncle Gary in this photo... I'll have to find a shot of my uncle...
  • Boats-n-Cars said:
    Can anyone explain the one-sided collar and the way the tie ends on his right?
  • pix luvr said:
    Boats-n-cars... it looks like the collar is all there... but a stain on the photograph is clearly more noticable, therefore creating an illusion of a one-sided collar and blunt ending of the tie. The stain extends into the jaw & lower cheek area also. oops.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Veterans of the American Civil War, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    Aha! The Commander in Chief in civilian attire. His pocketwatch used to follow war progress and troop positions while continuously being updated to stay informed.

    Also full beard with shaven mustache appears frequently as popular appearance of officers and soldiers alike.

    One of the many interesting aspects, to me, of this much reproduced photo is the figure at right in the big hat with his hand on a saber: George Armstrong Custer.
  • Gary Weaver said:
    To my view, they are all little men but one. Sacket might give him a go.

    I never visited the Antietam Battlefield, but I DID visit Gettysburg, the Battle of the Wilderness, Chancelorsville, and Fredericksburg. It's a sobering visit and moment in your lifetime to traverse soil that was drenched in the blood of Union and Confederate soldiers. Hallowed ground, that these sites are. But, in the words of Ulysses S. Grant at the Appomattox Courthouse, " These (Confederate) men were once our enemy....they are now our fellow countrymen." And so, the confederates merely dropped their rifles, and went fishing for the rest of the day.

    I wonder why this photo was copied with the book and the large margin included. It would be nice to be able to see the picture as it was originally taken,
