Edgar Allan Poe 1848. By Samuel W. Hartshorn. The “Whitman” daguerreotype was taken in Providence, Rhode Island in November of 1848 by the studio of Samuel Masury and S. W. Hartshorn. It’s the only known likeness Poe commissioned himself, speculated to be an engagement gift to Sarah Helen Whitman. She likely accompanied him to this sitting. Poe is 39 years old. Wearing his old military frock coat and glaring at us with his piercing stare from a three quarter angle, Poe considered this image the best likeness he ever had.
Harry S. Truman. An official portrait. Since an official portrait, my guess is taken between 1945 to 1953.

Scene showing deserted camp and wounded Zouave soldier. Circa 1860-65. The Zouave soldier is wearing a Silver Crescent and Star Badge. Can't verify this information: A Union Army soldier stops to give a wounded Zouave a sip of water from his canteen in the ruins of the Union camp at Falmouth , Virginia in early 1863. These men were veterans of the Battle Of Fredericksburg in December of 1862. The ruins are from the previous winter most likely. By Mathew Brady.
