Fellows,
Last weekend I was out with Ms. FloridaConscript at Sams gathering what not for a Christmas party. While browsing the book section I cam across a large coffee table book called "Looking for Lincoln" which was a photo compilation of all Lincoln related stuff. A photo that stood out was a reunion picture (1897 I think) of the Richmond Old Guard, where maybe half of the men were in UCVuniforms (the photo was captioned "Richmond Old Guard wearing the uniforms they surrendered in at appomattox). 2 men stood out, one wore what looked to me like a P tait jacket and another that looked for all the world like a tye 1. The book was 40 books, and not really in the budget for that day. Anyone else have this book or have access to the photo? it'd be neat to get a hi res scan.
