New Photos Of Lincoln Inauguration Found

History come alive, kids! Who else is excited?

This, my friends, is a gold mine of historical significance. Apparently, these photos (four in all) were originally misidentified until a curator at The Library of Congress found the mistake. This particular photo shows the 16th President giving his inaugural address. Lincoln is in the middle of the photo, just above the small podium. (Click to embiggen.)
