Pres95. E&HT Anthony. Prominent Portraits. No. 2969. Hon. Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States. This is Ostendorf-49 (O-49). "Exhausted by a train journey during which he had traveled nearly two thousand miles and visited seven states, Lincoln went to Brady's Washington studio, probably on Sunday, February 24, 1861, and sat (opposite), absorbed in problems, while Alexander Gardner took five poses...Apparently concerned about the time the photographer was taking to prepare the lighting and plates, the harried President-elect has just looked at the watch which he holds, case still open, in his right hand." (Hamilton and Ostendorf, Lincoln in Photographs, An Album of Every Known Pose. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1963, pps. 77-79). Ostendorf reports that "At this first Washington sitting, Gardner also used a two-lens, or stereoscopic, camera" (p. 79). Yet later, page 124, he says "Only about six stereographs of Lincoln were published during his lifetime. They bear a publication date not later than 1865. With the exception of the outdoor views of Lincoln at Antietam, which were taken with a standard stereoscopic or two-lens camera, all of the contemporary published stereographs of the President were made by combining two of the images simultaneously recorded by a three- or four-lens camera." This view was issued with both numbers 2968 and 2969. As Ostendorf says "In 1864 and 1865 the E&HT Anthony Company published four different pairs of President Lincoln on the "Portrait Gallery" stereograph cards (O-49, O-84, O-103, and O-104). Their identification number, either "2968" or "2969," was given to all four views." (Hamilton and Ostendorf, Lincoln in Photographs, An Album of Every Known Pose. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1963, page 124.) 3-cent cancelled tax stamp on verso. G. $2350

PR114. E&HT Anthony. Prominent Portraits. No. 2968. Hon. Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States. As Ostendorf says "In 1864 and 1865 the E&HT Anthony Company published four different pairs of President Lincoln on the "Portrait Gallery" stereograph cards (O-49, O-84, O-103, and O-104). Their identification number, either "2968" or "2969," was given to all four views." (Hamilton and Ostendorf, Lincoln in Photographs, An Album of Every Known Pose.
