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.)

I think she would have hard feelings about it.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

She would be pleased once to be the taller Kentuckian...
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???).
