Apparently the 6 handles (one broken) are now housed at the Historic Auto Attractions Museum in Roscoe, IL. Has anyone ever been there? The museum also claims to have Abraham Lincoln's straight razor, hair samples from Abraham Lincoln, Mary Lincoln, and Mary Surratt, plus the manacles worn by Lewis Powell. And these are just a sample of the items the museum claims it has.
