Original - James A. Garfield leaning against James G. Blaine as Charles Guiteau is restrained in the background
Reason
I think this is a good historical image of a highly significant event. The resolution just barely squeaks by, but I think the quality checks out. It was previously nominated, but failed after several editors disagreed with the quality of the scan. I disagree; I think it is good and clear.
