If you think the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum is just about Lincoln, think again. A new exhibit “Rare and Rarely Seen” features an impressive set of artifacts. Chris Wills with the Library//museum says one of the most impressive items features crucial correspondence between the two top generals of the Civil War.
Other items include a dress worn by Marilyn Monroe, wooden shoes worn by someone held at the Dachau Nazi Concentration Camp, a Howitzer shell representing Illinois that was fired at President Kennedy's funeral and a document signed by George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. The exhibit runs through January 29th.
