Relic of Lincoln's Death Bed Sheet

On April 14th, 1865 John Wilkes Booth and his fellow conspirators executed their plan to disrupt the government of the United States by having Booth shoot Lincoln at Ford's Theater and Lewis Powell attack Secretary of State William Seward in his home. Lincoln died the following day but Seward survived the attack.

This relic of Lincoln's death bed sheet originated from the effects of Charles K. Tuckerman, the first American Minister to Greece, who wrote a letter provenance for the bed sheet in his own hand. It is presented with small strands of Abraham Lincoln's (left) and William Seward's hair (right) collected by Mrs. Caroline Wright, the wife of the Governor of Indiana Joseph Wright. The Wrights were close friends of the Lincolns and Mrs. Wright had requested samples of hair for her collection.

Rare Coney Island and Gravesend Railway Bank Note

The first railroad to reach Coney Island was actually cars pulled by horses in 1860. The terminal was at Van Sicklen, which at the time was near the beach. However, as the sandbar that protected West Brighton filled in and the beach widened, the present day location of the terminal is far inland.

A terrific find! A rare Coney Island & Gravesend Railway Bank Note. Printed by Homer Lee Bank Note Co-NY. Available Issued or Unissued.
State: New York
Years: 1890s - 1900s

The Enola Gay - The B-29 Superfortress Bomber

The Enola Gay is the B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb, code-named "Little Boy," to be used in war by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) in the attack on Hiroshima, Japan on 6 August 1945, just before the end of World War II.

Because of the bomber's role in the atomic bombings of Japan, its name has been synonymous with the controversy over the bombings themselves. The B-29 was named after Enola Gay Tibbets, the mother of the pilot, Paul Tibbets.

We have an outstanding print of the Enola Gay with boldly signed autographs of the pilot and Commander-Colonel Paul W. Tibbets, the Navigator-Captain Theodore J. Van Kirk, and the Bombardier-Major Thomas W. Ferebee. Large 18" x 24". Superb and truly outstanding!
