Booth Spencers
I don't know if anyone knows what happened to the Spencer carbine (#24,304) that Booth had when he was killed, but the carbine he had stashed at Lloyd's Tavern #34,617) is on display at Ford's Theater by the National Parks Service. I saw that Horse Soldier had one close to the first one, a #24,368 a couple of years ago, and Relicman had a #34,651. So maybe you can get lucky and find one with a close serial number to either of the ones associated with Booth.
