        Great photo of Mark Twain! Almost looks fake.

        The photographer is Alvin Langdon Coburn, most of his photos look "fake", imo. Photography was fairly new then - I think that played a role.

        He used a dictaphone, but the cylinders got lost in a fire. We've never heard his voice. Might be a surviving cylinder in an attic somewhere

        While Samuel Clemens was a wonderful writer - is it just me or does he look a little like a face-swap between Einstein and Stalin here?
