    What can one say? This is simply incredible, a find that matches the riches of any treasure or booty. One can peer into those faces and see personalities, biases, worldviews, politics, and socio/economic stations of the subject. These photos are as enlightening as any dry, massive missive on the trial, and one is privileged to psychoanalyze (armature fun, no fear of malpractice implications) the the cameras target to boot!

    The day after Bryan’s death following the Scopes trial in 1925, H. L. Mencken scarcely took the time to bow his head before uncharitably calling him “a charlatan, a mountebank, a zany without sense or dignity….leading his forlorn mob of imbeciles…[and] uttering stuff that a boy of eight would laugh at.”
