Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation Owes Big $$$

[davg2000]

I don't know the name of the appraiser, but I do remember that Dr. Cornelius was adamant that the hat was Lincoln's when the Chicago Tribune's article about the hat's perhaps shakey provenance appeared. At the time I heard him speak, his logic made sense. Of course, the other side to this is that Dr. Cornelius might not be seen as objective in this matter.
