What happened to the original casket?

[L Verge]

As for the Surratt lock of hair, as best as I can see it bears credentials from the Manuscript Society - which is a very reputable organization. I was friends for years with the editor of its newsletter, however, and I think he would have alerted me to this if he had known about it.

It is nicely presented, but why are these things in an automobile museum? The carriage that carried the Lincolns' party to Ford's Theatre that night is in the Studebaker Museum, but that makes sense (four wheels and all that...).
