LIFE's COVER: The man who impersonates Lincoln on Broadway and on this week's cover is Raymond Massey. Though Massey is a Canadian by birth, his parents are of old American stock. Lincoln was 6 ft. 4 in. tall and weighed 180 lb. Massey, who is 6 ft. 2 in. and weighs 160, wears shoe platforms and a wig to complete his make-up. He creates a thrilling moment, when, as Abe Lincoln he first rises from a chair and unbends his lean, bony body. Through the rest of the play lie presents a remarkable study of the great figure in American history (see p. 4k).
