Museum-grade Abraham Lincoln life mask - with museum tag - free shipping

Description: This is a precise, museum-grade replica of the 1860 Leonard Volk (1828 - 1895) life mask made of the living Abraham Lincoln just as he was beginning his presidential campaign. It is finished in very hard museum wax. This comes with the museum display tag show in the photo. The original resides in the Smithsonian Museum of American History. It is widely regarded as the most faithful representation of the 16th American president in existence. The original mold, taken from Lincoln's face directly at the onset of his presidential run, is life size. This duplicate precisely copies the original to within 0.2 mm of the Smithsonian original, including the rough backside. No other representation of Lincoln is both life-size and also a direct copy of the man's face at his most recognizable--other life-size busts are either artist renderings, carvings from photos, or of him much older. The Smithsonian original is made of plaster. This 1:1 replica preserves the fine detail, including Lincoln's unique skin marks, but improves upon plaster's fragility by using an extremely hard museum wax over a different wax, and a hand-shaped latticed thermoplastic (in that order). The lattice is what ensures there is no flex. Unlike plaster, this replica is highly resistant to shatter and wear, and suitable for display is a manner to permit close inspection and handling. This listing includes the museum display tag. Made in the USA. And of course you may return it if you are not happy--I have set my return window to the longest that eBay allows.
