‘Irreplaceable’ Lincoln bust stolen from Gettysburg museum

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (WHTM) – Lincoln is missing and there are few clues to work with. The Hall of Presidents in Gettysburg hopes to get its presidential bust back.

Just a few days after the anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, it’s a blow to the attraction.

There’s a lot of Lincoln in the Hall of Presidents, from the life-size figure to souvenirs like playing cards, a candy dispenser, and a snow globe.

“Just having discovered it this morning, we’re still kind of trying to figure things out,” said Max Felty, president of Gettysburg Tours.

First, he found a pedestal in the parking lot. “I knew that was not right.”

  2. More likely some college students. It's now sitting in a dorm room or frat house with a vaporizer mask fixed to his face.

  3. Still not as funny as stealing the cardboard trooper outside of Berlin barrack or a macaw from the zoo and leaving it in a phone booth to be picked up.
