1871? George C. Potter, Washington, D.C. Saunders #43. Courtesy Ohio Wesleyan University, Bayley Collection. This is the original photograph for the well-known Linton engraving, which follows. Whitman remembered George Potter as "not a Leaves of Grass man, but friendly to me," and he preferred the photo to the engraving ("the photo has somewhat that he [the engraver] fails to retain"). |
