Edwin Booth was a renowned actor during the mid-to-late 19th century , most well known for his roles in Shakespeare plays , including Hamlet , among others . Unfortunately his success as one of the most talented actors of his generation were overshadowed by his younger brother , John Wilkes Booth , and his assassination of President Abraham Lincoln . Following the his brother ’ s death , he disavowed him and refused to let his name be spoken in his presence . Edwin went on to continue a successful career as an actor until a stroke in 1891 led to his retirement .

Booth did not find out until later that is was Abraham Lincoln ’ s son that he saved . Comes w / JSA LOA . ( I ) $ 200.00
