RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Roger,
I would have never said that, but since you did I have to admit he does bear a slight resemblance to Coolidge, but that's not correct. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Joe,
Again, he does bear a resemblance to Debs, but that isn't correct either. Clue: He has rarely been mentioned on this site, but has appeared once in a while. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Next clue.
He shares something in common with not only Lincoln but also with Ida Tarbell. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Was the photo taken in the 1940's or 1930's (based off their clothing)?
Hmm... connected to Sandburg and Tarbell but barely mentioned on the Forum. That would probably rule out Lincoln scholars who are writers/authors. Maybe, some type of Lincoln collector? A collector could have access to bits of little known info which would appeal to Tarbell and Sandburg. |

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Sorry Bill, but it isn't Ford.
Steve, I am unsure as to the date of the photo, but I would guess your timeframe is accurate. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Roger,
No he wasn't. I will give a bonus clue. He had a son that shares the name of our esteemed forum founder. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln in the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell

RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Clue: He and Sandburg were very close friends, but they also argued very loudly on occasion, especially when Wilma Minor appeared.
