Smithsonian To Briefly Close First Ladies Exhibit

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Smithsonian is taking the first ladies' gowns off display for about three weeks as the National Museum of American History prepares a new home for the popular dresses in Washington.

The "First Ladies at the Smithsonian" exhibit is closed beginning Tuesday. A new exhibit, "The First Ladies," opens Nov. 19 in a new gallery.

I hope they revert to the original way the dresses were displayed (on figures that looked like the ladies). The last time I visited this exhibit, I was so disappointed to see the dressed on headless manakins.
