Description
English: Albumen print of Abraham Lincoln. "The short haircut was perhaps suggested by Lincoln's barber to facilitate the taking of his life mask by Clark Mills.

"An 1865 stereograph long attributed to Mathew Brady was actually taken by Lewis Emory Walker, a government photographer, about February 1865 and published for him by the E. & H. T. Anthony Co., of New York." (Source: Ostendorf, p. 198-9). Ostendorf# O-103c; Meserve# 92.
