Abraham Lincoln's Bicentennial

The Libraries celebrates the 200th birthday of Abraham Lincoln today.

The sixteenth president of the United States is represented by two images in the Libraries collections, this image from Harper's Weekly, as well as an image of the president's carriage, which happened to be a Studebaker, and can be found in our digital display, From Horses to Horsepower: Studebaker Helped Moved a Nation.
