I got you Abe: Souvenirs from the Land-O-Lincoln

Abe's head on a stick, anyone?


Lincoln beard (no shaving required)


Lincoln mask (fool your friends!)


Who wants nuts?

Technically, these aren't Lincoln souvenirs,
but Civil War knickknacks don't come any creepier.



Lincoln and a big fan.

The sticker on the plate reads "Note for Food Use: Food Consumed from this Vessel May Be Harmful". In other words, it's for lookin', not cookin'.


Abe-pod.

What friend or loved-one wouldn't want one of the fine Abraham Lincoln mementos offered by the splendid gift and souvenir emporiums of Springfield, Illinois?

I couldn't resist the Lincoln head on a stick. It's just too odd!

Looks like Bad-Fruit-Man's head on a stick. Remember him?

I saw those souvenirs at the gift shop at the big, beautiful Abraham Lincoln Museum in Springfield.
