Look at Abraham Lincoln through others' eyes, seeing history in an
entirely different light. While historical text details what
Lincoln thought or did and how he planned his actions, the
collector of Lincoln holds tangible items, revealing how society
saw or portrayed the president. Through collectibles, Lincoln is
revealed not only as politician, but also as the subject of
painters and sculptors. His influence on society and politics is
brought to life in a way which can't be produced in a purely
historical or biographical text. The first president to be
photographed and have his photographs distributed to hundreds of
thousands of citizens, Lincoln's image appears on medals, coins,
stamps, and currency, and his story is told in books and pamphlets.
Lincoln relics elevate him to an almost saint-like figure in
society, and his assassination brought the nation to its knees in
mourning. Over 950 photographs illustrate this multi-faceted look
at Lincoln and how society still reveres him more than one hundred
years after his death.
