ABRAHAM LINCOLN — THE BUZZ CUT


"The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise -- with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country."

Now that's a President who's hip to what is happening today. And on the cutting edge of fashion too.

“This is a flat-bed scan of an original ca.1920s KEYSTONE VIEW COMPANY curved-mount, silver-print stereoview that was printed from a copy negative made directly from a 60-some year old rare albumen print in the Library of Congress. Photographed by LEWIS EMORY WALKER around February 1865, it was originaly published by ANTHONY. It’s the last known stereoview of him before he was assassinated." -- Love Truth & Beauty
