LINCOLN IN MEMORY
The Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum is pleased to open a new temporary exhibit in Kresge Gallery. "Lincoln in Memory-The 16th President in Personal and Cultural Recollections," examines the public perception of Lincoln through marketing, the media, Hollywood, and even folk art. Scores of artifacts from the museum's substantial collection will be utilized including movie posters, calendars, advertisements, political and patriotic memorabilia, and popular and fine art. Selected quotes from Lincoln admirers, friends, and contemporaries will be used to describe Lincoln as perceived by those who knew him.

This exhibit is a collaborate effort involving the talents of many people, and the hard work of some very dedicated students. These capable individuals are honored on the acknowledgement panel.

The exhibit will close September 2009.
