Abraham Lincoln Pins from the Hard Rock Cafe

Here are some Lincoln collectibles from the Hard Rock Cafe: ever-popular pins.

Disco Abe (Saturday Night Fever Abe)

The Hard Rock Cafe in Washington, D.C., is prolific in its production of Abraham Lincoln pins. Most excellent is Disco Abe. (Daniel Day-Lewis is playing Abraham Lincoln these days. John Travolta missed his chance.)

Disco Abe (pin 15137) is from 2002. It is a Limited Edition of 500 pins.

Lincoln the Drummer

This 2012 pin from the Washington, D.C., Hard Rock Cafe is a bobblehead pin. Lincoln sits behind his drum kit; you can bobble his head. "If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?" <cymbal-crash!> This is a limited edition of 1000.

As you can see, this pin is from eBay seller hooverxl, who has many Hard Rock cafe pins. (I bought this one and had a good transaction!)

Lincoln with Guitar

Lincoln frequently appears with a guitar, sometimes seated at the Lincoln Memorial, and sometimes not.

The 2002 pin (number 13886, LE 500) shows Lincoln standing outside the Lincoln Memorial with his orange electric guitar.

In these pins, Abraham Lincoln is incorporated into the guitar design:

The 2008 3D Monument Guitar - Lincoln Memorial Copper pin was a limited edition of only 50. The 2011 pin takes the basic Lincoln line-drawing used on several Memorial pins and puts it against a blue stripped background.

Though not quite as good as Disco Abe, these 2010 (LE 300) and 2011 (LE 1000) bobblehead pins are still quite cool:

If you like bobblehead pins, you might also like the Hard Rock Cafe Lincoln drummer pin and the Hard Rock Cafe Abraham Lincoln bobblehead.

Other Hard Rock Cafes across America got into the Abe spirit in 2004 with the Rocking America series. Here are pins from Los Angeles (LE 200) and Orlando:
