RE: The John Wilkes Booth Bobblehead...Poor taste?
Bill,
I'm ambivalent about it. On the one hand, I think anyone can pretty well read into something with their own biases and make out of it what they want. Some collectors would want it simply for the collectible, while some may want to it glorify Booth. For me, simply, it is ugly and I have no interest in having it. But does it mean the end of civilization as we know it? Of course not. P.T. Barnum was right. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
