A bloody relic for American politics, this contain of Reagan's plasma:
Even better, it's from 1981, during Hinckley's assassination attempt.
One calls it a "true medieval-style relic", which suggests all kinds of Gothic alt-history. Will the blood do tricks, like healing the sick? Will we see collections of dead presidents' fingerbones?

Is presidential blood all that rare? The Lincoln museum in Springfield had an exhibit a few years ago which featured the President;s blood-stained gloves from the night of the assassination...

Good point, Robert. I wonder which president had relics most recently, before Reagan. JFK?
