You do such beautiful work, David.
Forum members, if you ever have the opportunity to have David do a presentation for your group or see an advertisement of his coming to an area near you, please take advantage of it. He gave a very good program at a Surratt banquet several years ago.

Thank you!
According to the National Park Service site here.
Why is there a picture of George Washington on the State Box?
The picture was placed there to decorate the box when Lincoln came to the theatre that evening. We believe this to be the original portrait that was here on April 14, 1865. It is interesting to note that the state box had never been decorated before, this was the first time.
