Historical images often degrade over time while on display and in the last few months, the DeWitt County Museum has taken advantage of an opportunity to preserve those moments in time. 

Joey Long, Executive Director of the CH Moore Homestead and DeWitt County Museum explains their project, 'Picture Perfect' sought to preserve historical photographs from their collection it is just about wrapped up. 

This photo replication will allow the museum to keep displaying the history of DeWitt County while preserving the originals for generations to come. 

Long says they've had a great response from the community, noting her gratitude towards all the sponsors who have helped keep history alive in Clinton and DeWitt County.

The effort began this fall and Long hopes to see those finished copies on display at the Museum very soon.
