Lincoln's Ready Made Soldiers Civil War exhibit 2005

Archive
13 CDs of materials used to produced the 2005 Civil War exhibit for the SDHC museum plus snapshots of the final exhibit. The files attached to this entry were found on a series of CD-ROMs and many were unopenable Quark files. (Quark was a publishing software popular when the exhibit was created in 2005 but has fallen out of use since.) The attached files were converted to PDF or JPG in 2022 in the hopes they will remain usable into the future. Exhibit design by Judy Hillman. A CD of Kit Lane's research materials for the exhibit is at 2023.18.48.
