The Crowds at Gettysburg
In these images of the crowds at the dedication ceremony at the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, a Library of Congress patron has identified the sixteenth president in both images taken by Alexander Gardner on November 19, 1863. Under extreme magnification a figure believed to be Lincoln, white-gloved in his trademark stovepipe hat, appears in a military procession.
