Lincoln Speech Memorial Card from the collection of Tom Yagloski

The act creating the Gettysburg National Park provided for a memorial in granite and bronze of Lincoln's address at the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery at Gettysburg, November 19, 1863, and this Lincoln's Speech Memorial is the result. It is a Speech Memorial, and not intended as a Lincoln Memorial.
