EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Black Packer, a prominent figure in 19th-century America. Taken between 1860 and 1875 by an unknown creator, the image portrays Packer as a distinguished politician, banker, and lawyer from Pennsylvania. Packer's impressive resume includes serving as deputy attorney general and chairing the United States House Committee on Railways and Canals. His influence in politics is evident through his role as a lawmaker and legislator during this transformative era of American history. The photograph captures Packer's commanding presence with his well-groomed facial hair, specifically his notable mutton chop sideburns that were popular at the time. The intensity in his eyes reflects both determination and wisdom gained through years of experience in law and politics. Preserved within the Congressional Library's collection, this still image offers us a glimpse into the life of an influential individual who played a significant role in shaping the United States. As we admire this portrait today, it serves as a reminder of our country's rich heritage and the remarkable individuals who dedicated their lives to public service. With its historical significance, this print by Unknown from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate not only John Black Packer but also the countless unsung heroes who have contributed to our nation's progress throughout history.
