https://www.facebook.com/LincolnCollection/To have a little fun this holiday season, we wanted to share with our wonderful Tumblr followers our 12 Days of Lincoln countdown a bit early! We know the 12 days of Christmas traditionally refer to the days between Christmas and New Year’s but this year, we’d like to use them as a Lincoln Collection Countdown! Join us for the next 12 days as we highlight interesting items in the collection to a well-loved holiday tune.
On the twelfth day of Christmas, Mr. Lincoln gave to me
Twelve Grants a-coming,
Eleven fifers fifing,
Ten songs of weeping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight Tads a-marching,
Seven soldiers singing,
Six McClellans staying,
Five blanket pins,
Four cartoon birds,
Three Dahlgrens,
Two pall bearer gloves
and a Thomas Nast Christmas tree.
For more detailed information about these items and images, check us out this December on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/LincolnCollection/).
Happy Holidays from the Lincoln Collection!
