Today, I went to Ford’s Theater, the location of Lincoln’s assassination by John Wilkes Booth. I thought the museum was well organized; it balanced history and appeal to the public effectively. The museum had a lot of artifacts from Lincoln’s life, specifically from the night he died. After a tour of the museum, you are able to go into the theater, which is still an active theater today. I think that the theater is sometimes overlooked by tourists who come to DC to visit the popular Smithsonian museums, but I would definitely suggest taking the time to visit this museum dedicated to one of our greatest presidents.
Abraham Lincoln's brass knuckles. Because Lincoln was a badass.
I have been researching this guy for the past two weeks at the Navy Museum.
The tiny gun.
Once again, I repeat: Lincoln was a badass.
Lincoln's box.
That's a long way to jump.
