RE: Is This Abraham Lincoln?
Marsha makes a good point about the Gurney photo, it seems unlikely he would be allowed to set up his camera and equipment without permission. It's not like he took out his cell phone and took a picture when no one was looking. He was well known in his day, it seems he may have had friends in high places in New York City (that does still happen today doesn't it?). Unfortunately, no source for the info in this internet article. The article also has a link to the Life Magazine article about that photo.

What little I have learned about Gurney is from internet articles. (So it must all be true)

Here is a short biography from Wikipedia
Gurney helped train Matthew Brady
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremiah_Gurney

Here is a sample of some of his work. Zoom in and you will be surprised by the detail. At least I was.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
