After the 1933 Chicago World's Fair it was thought to be lost, but was found and eventually donated to Wake forest University. It is 22 feet high and weighs 6 tons (that's a real lot of paint and canvas). It was one of four Gettysburg Cycloramas made.
It is now up for sale and I'm hoping that the new Fayetteville, N.C., Civil War Museum will be able to get it.
