1887. George C. Cox, New York. Not in Saunders. Courtesy Library of Congress. Whitman's lace collar, very visible here, was the handiwork of his housekeeper, Mary Davis, who made Whitman's shirts; he was particularly fond of this one and kept it for special occasions. See the reappearance of the lace in the 1889 Gutekunst photos. |
