Portrait of Lincoln as a young man?

The evidence is compelling. There's more discussion here, here, and here.
I cleaned up the original image (I loves me my Paint Shop Pro) and the result is above. It is evident that the man in the portrait is pretty robust which doesn't jibe with later images of Lincoln but does square up with his early career as a rail splitter.
