If you want to know more about Lincoln and his impersonators (and you know you do!), you can learn all about them in an upcoming documentary entitled Life as Lincoln. The documentary looks at three of the impersonators or presenters, as they prefer to be called, and explores their efforts to introduce people to the principles that Lincoln cherished. All silliness about birthday cakes aside, this is likely to be a very interesting documentary and a reminder of what Lincoln means to all of us. The documentary premieres today in Chicago.

I miss having Lincoln and Washington's birthdays as separate holidays. They deserve special recognition. Nice post!
ReplyDeletegood grief?! 300?! fascinating fact and a gorgeous card! happy PFF!
ReplyDeleteI agree with MuseSwings - I miss the separate holidays. And, 300 presenters? I think we should all eat cake!
ReplyDeleteI forgot about Lincoln's birthday or I would have posted something about him. I was going to post a lot of cards about him last year (bicentennial of his birth) but never got around to it.
ReplyDeleteI never really thought about a Lincoln impersonator but when I do..it makes sense actually! Great card!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my place...it was my first time...I'll have to break out the rest of the postcards and mailings!

ReplyDeleteGREAT Presidents postcard, glad to see someone else was thinking about them.... PPF Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteChristine, there is some famous work of art that the French seem really enamored with -- a couple bowing their heads in prayer as they stand in the middle of a field. I came across a French postcard created from cut-up postage stamps depicting this work of art -- and whoever made it used the face of Lincoln from a postage stamp for the man's face. It's just too funny -- incongruous, I guess one could say.
