Well, You Can Say Goodbye to That Subscription

People Magazine ran a “Historical Hotties” survey and, using the recently debated Cobbe portrait, 73% of readers declared him “Not.”

The great thing about images of Shakespeare, though, is that there are so many to choose from. :)  Maybe they’d like Chandos better?

Although I suspect that poor Will is going to lose this one to Marlowe regardless of which image you pick.

I'm not troubled by this, for the obvious reason: the Cobbe portrait ain't Shakespeare.
