It's the theatre rocking chair President Abraham Lincoln was sitting in when he was shot April 14, 1865. He died the next day. The chair is part of the collection at The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mich. It has been at the museum since the early 1930s and was kept in the historical Logan Courthouse, where Lincoln practiced law, at the museum's Greenfield Village until the 1970s. Henry Ford is said to have been a huge fan of Lincoln and his history, so he worked to obtain several historical pieces.metal folding chairs jamaica "We kind of have the bookends of [Lincoln's] career," says the museum's senior events manager, Jim Johnson, standing in the Logan Courthouse. rent tables and chairs auburn al"This particular courthouse was on the circuit where he rode. bean bag chairs for sale in sri lanka

This is where he began his political career and, of course, things ended in Ford's Theatre in Washington." Johnson says after the president died, the chair began a bizarre journey of  storage, misuse, damage, auction and relocation - before it finally ended at its permanent home. Here are some little-known facts about the chair. 1. It hasn't been treated the best. Johnson says the unthinkable happened at another famous museum along the way, as the chair was kept in a storage closet. "From what we understand, people who worked at the Smithsonian probably, custodians or people like that, used it as kind of a break area," Johnson says. He says this likely happened around the end of the 19th century, and that they'd sit in the chair, got lots of hair grease on it and might have even taken off pieces to keep as relics. 2. It was used at the Ford Theatre especially for Lincoln to sit in. The black walnut chair with red silk fabric was part of a set, or suite, in a theatre box and was only brought out for special occasions.

"It was kind of cushy and comfortable, and Abraham Lincoln was a fairly tall man so it was brought specially into the theatre box for him when he did attend the theatre," says Johnson. 3. It's not covered in blood, as it appears to be. "There's a large black stain at the back of the chair, which everybody assumes is Lincoln's blood - absolutely not the case." Johnson says they've done some analysis on the stain and have discovered it's hair oil. Some of the other stains are water damage. Some spots, though hard to detect, have been determined to be blood. Though, it's not confirmed whose blood it is. The chair will be out of its case at the Henry Ford Museum on Wednesday, April 15, to commemorate the day of Lincoln's death. The Henry Ford Museum is offering free admission that day, also, and Greenfield Village opens for the season.
