An Anachronism

My son is a sponge. He just soaks up new information

When I tell him the meaning of a new word, he internalizes it and says,

“Oh.”

Just delightful.

Today, see if you can see an anachronism in this picture of Abraham Lincoln’s neighborhood in Springfield.

I remember when I learned the word. It was while we were studying “Julius Caesar” in high school.

I don’t know if it was the clock striking three or some other part, but that’s when I learned the word.

Look at this picture of the street with Lincoln’s home in the background.

Find what did not exist at the time Lincoln lived there.

And the people and the wheel chair in the picture don’t count. (Click to enlarge the photo.)

Answer tomorrow.
