After renting a small house during their first year of marriage, Abe Lincoln purchased their first and only house. In May of 1844, Abraham, Mary, and their first baby son,Robert, moved into a one-and-a-half-story cottage - a house which they eventuallyexpanded into two stories, and a home where they raised their family for seventeen years.
This kit is based on plans provided by the National Park Service and portrays the house as it was when Lincoln was president. It features laser cut parts with peel and stick trim, tabbed wall construction, photo-etched porch railings (not shown in photos), gutters, downspouts, shutters even the fence!.
