Scope and Contents
Berea College's Abraham Lincoln Historical Collection offers researchers a variety of texts, images, and artifacts related to the study of Abraham Lincoln’s life and tragic death, public memorialization of the 16th president, and the industry built around the collecting of Lincoln memorabilia. The collection includes 30 boxes of booklets, newspaper and magazine articles, posters, portraits, medallions and coins, pins, log cabin sculpturettes, and other curiosities, such as a “Lincoln bow tie” allegedly worn the night Lincoln was assassinated at Ford’s Theatre, accompanied by both “authentication,” and in turn, “disproving” documentation.
