Description

John Wilkes Booth CDV "Our country owed all her troubles to him, and God simply made me the instrument of his punishment." These words were uttered by the infamous John Wilkes Booth, and he was of course talking about his assasination of President Abraham Lincoln. It has been said that John Wilkes Booth was one of the most photographed men of his time. This lot features a wonderful CDV of Mr. Booth wearing a winter coat and dashing suit. His hair is cut short and he is beardless. A wonderful image of America's Brutus! "The Fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves..." -Julius Caesar.
