Good thing MTL is not around to see these wax "likenesses"...she'd have a meltdown like no other!
Those monstrosities don't look anything like the Lincolns!

I wonder what Mary would think about the Lincoln-Todd monument at Fred Smith's Wisconsin Concrete Park. (Mary is standing; Abraham is sitting.)

Roger....I don't know what to say. OH. MY. GAWD. will have to suffice till I think of something!

This is so weird I almost love it. And this one unlike the others at least doesn't (I HOPE it doesn't) attempt to be a serious, true-to-life likeness, rather to be a piece (or a satire of it) of whatsoever modern art while the others are being serious about the true likeness (or not???).
