    An unusually beautiful crowd photo from this period. I love the framing, with TR, the subject of the rapt attention, off-camera to the left, and the timing, which captures the pleased faces and gestures of the crowd. Susan Barsy OUR POLITY

    Wow, I have never seen this one and I have seen a LOT of Lincoln images.

    very cool....and again, so young looking. but i guess being president, war and the enormous amounts of stress he was obviously under will age you.

    The facial expression is interesting... and he reminds me of Kramer in that photo (as in, Seinfeld).

    I collected campaign buttons as a child; my requirement was that I usually received them from the candidate or at a campaign event. (I probably still have them somewhere.) I'd not seen them before from this early, though, and would be interested if anyone knows more about the provision (where they given away, free? what did they cost the campaign to make?) and use (this looks like it might have been worn on a chain?) of campaign buttons at the time. (edit: almost none of mine, most from the 1970s, had photographs on them)

    I've seen hundreds of Lincoln photos, being a Civil War buff, but I've never seen this shot. Thanks for posting it.
