Title: A visit to Henry Ford Museum Post by: den68 on November 30, 2005, 11:18:11 AM I went there to get some pictures of the video games they had in one of the exhibits. Here's a few other interesting items:
This is the chair Abraham Lincoln was sitting in when he was shot by John Wilkes Booth in the Ford Theater. The info states that those are indeed blood stains on the chair as well as hair dye on other unidentified substances. (http://www.quikey-c.com/den1/elements/HFM13.jpg) R.

Do they have vehicles in there from other companies or only Ford made items? Just curious. Title: Re: A visit to Henry Ford Museum Post by: Arrrhalomynn on November 30, 2005, 02:02:08 PM They should use that blood to clone Lincoln.

Did you happen to see Greenfield village as well?

Hopefully I'll be going to the Imax there to see Harry Potter soon. |
