RE: What Will You Do For Lincoln's Day ?
Thanks for sharing, Thomas. Your comment about the sofa in the box being original made me think back to an email I received from Richard Sloan recently. It contained information I did not know. I do not think Richard will mind my sharing his email with the forum:
"Are you all aware that the engraving of Washington hanging on the front of the Pres. box in the restored thea. is not the original that was hanging there on the night of the assassination? This past August, it was removed out of fear that it was fading. A reproduction was made, which is what is seen since then. I don’t know if the frame is the same and that the orig. engraving was removed from it." |
