And here's another shot (circa 1960s judging from the clothing of the photographer) which shows a figure who looks like Edwin Booth supporting Mary Lincoln..... strange!

Thanks, Bill! I love these old images of different variations of the assassination - some of them are hysterical! Lincoln's eyes indeed seem to be open.

   

This one looks like everyone in the box has aged at least 25-30 years. Booth looks at least 60-70 years old and Clara Harris looks like she's wearing some sort of apron! Also love Rathbone's extreme receding hairline! To quote an old horseman, everyone looks "Rode hard and put away wet!"
