:hot:GREAT news on my President Lincoln picture.

[Antique lover]

Man am I happy as he)) ! I have found out that there are ONLY two known pictures of Pres. Lincoln that were taken at Antietam . One of those sold for $3,290 and the other was over $7,000 in the frame. You can read about them at this sight.http://www.cowanauctions.com/past_sales_view_item.asp?ItemId=38012. AND for you guys that has offered me $200 , $100 , $50 and even one person offered me $25 , All I have to say is . " ARE YOU CRAZY ".I have been told NOT to give ANYBODY a copy of it OR NOT to touch the picture anymore with my fingers.It is now locked in a safety deposit box. Any offers now ?

Congratulations! if you get rid of it make sure you reallly think about it. I am sorry a few years ago I sold a tintype of Butch Cassidy, with letter of authenticity and a letter wrote by Butch's sister Louise, who owned the photo originally. I probably didn't get near enough what it was really worth and I'll probably never have a piece of outlaw history like that again. Still Kickin myself! Nice find you got there anyhow!
