Gettysburg Electric Map “Movie” Coming
Officials at the Gettysburg Museum that retired a 46 year old “electric map” last year. There were many calls for it not to be retired, but in the end it was. Now, after many visitors to the museum’s new home note they miss it, the staff has decided on an experiment. A film of the map’s lighted presentation was made before it was put out to pasture. That film is being edited and will run alongside the other film introducing the battle. In a sense, visitors can “vote” on which they’d prefer to see.
This doesn’t exactly bring back the map itself, but it’s memory will certainly recalled.
