    Acquired from auction sale 4/10/23

    Payed for value my stuff appraisal they gave the worthless reply. “There is no evidence to suggest that the sitters are Abraham Lincoln and his son.”. Which is utter complete nonsense if it looka like abraham lincoln with a child that looks like his son william wallace lincoln then that is an automatic provenance. There are no known portraits of father and son in a portrait sitting but logic has it that their should be Further more. Seperate from the argument above is the other items from the cache. Their proxy would add auto provenance. And in this case their indeed was. Other antique photos of subjects resembling tad and william You can see the auction items and price sold here. https://youtu.be/7rev7VR75jA

    Ah well all in all i still get a thrill from making potential discoveries of lost american treasure. Ive amased such a collection i could publish a book of them. In which i suppose the evidence would be from my authorship.

    Its not rocket science. They that are sold on provenance can enjoy he said she said letters attached to the image. But at the end of the day you should just be able to look at tbe image and see for yourself.
