Route 66: Abe Lincoln reading a book on a covered wagon!

Drivers getting their kicks in Illinois will be greeted by a peculiar sign greeting them at Lincoln, Illinois: not a regular metal sheet on a highway pole, but rather a 40-foot long covered wagon with Abraham Lincoln sitting at the helm, reading a book. Draped over the side of the wagon is a sign welcoming new arrivals. Weighing in at five tons and standing 24 feet tall, this is the largest covered wagon in the world.
