Hand printed Photograph of Abraham Lincoln from Gardner. Beautiful and moving portrait has been printed from the original 1865 portrait by Alexander Gardner. The original print was captured on an 8x10 glass negative by Frederick Hill Meserve in the early 1900's, and this print is from that negative. Framed in black metal, a letter on the back describes the process, which was done by Time-Life Photographic Lab.
