A traveling display of Lincoln and Civil War memorabilia and artifacts is available as a separate program. It requires a dedicated classroom for the day and at least six folding or library size tables. One or more classes can be rotated through the exhibit during a period of perhaps four repetitions; commentary and historical explanation will be given by the presenter who may or may not dress as Lincoln. Some of the objects can be seen nowhere else and include items of high value like Lincoln-signed documents to tintypes, cannonballs from Charleston harbor, goose quill pens, CDVs, a Confederate knapsack, original Currier & Ives prints, surgeon’s kits, letters, battlefield dug artifacts, over a thousand minie balls, an extensive exhibit of drummer boys and powder boys, and many other objects.
