Nope, not Mexico, Rob. You are very close, however.

That statue is in Havana, Cuba.

You can find it on the map the Dave Wiegers and I created:

We have recently updated and now have over 600 Lincoln sculptures (statue, bust, relief) represented! Check it out if you haven't already!!

Thanks for posting the web site Scott.
Interesting to see that there are no statues of Lincoln in Canada

Roger, Thanks for posting all these trivia questions.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

You're welcome Gene!

As far as Lincoln sculptures in Canada. Every once in a while we hear of a supposed Lincoln sculpture in Canada, but we haven't yet been able to confirm any. One person sent us photo of a "Lincoln" statue in Canada. It was a bearded figure that was clearly not Lincoln, and with a little research, we were able to prove it wasn't Lincoln and find out who it was (but I can't remember the name now...). That was a close as we have come.
