In the early days of The Gettysburg Museum of History, the guys from American Pickers went out on the road to help track down some Civil War artifacts. While in the museum, the piece that Mike Wolfe was immediately drawn to was an obelisk built from artifacts from the Battle of Antietam. In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at this super rare historic piece that is one of the favorites at The Gettysburg Museum of History.
