Description

Abraham Lincoln: Birthplace Relic. 5 3/4" x 4 1/4" thick slab of wood with paper label reading: "This 'Wood' is from the Lincoln Farm. Birthplace of Abraham Lincoln. Ladies Lincoln League. For Library Fund. Hodgenville, Ky." The other side has a postcard secured under glass depicting the "Lincoln Cabin inside Memorial Hall of Lincoln National Park Hodgenville Ky." Suspension loop at top. We assume this wood relic was taken from one of the pioneer-era buildings scattered on the site of the Lincoln Farm at Pigeon Creek.

Condition: Label is stained.
