The Seelye Mansion in Abilene, Kansas, which has been named "one of the 8 wonders of Kansas architecture" and compared to a time capsule. According to the Abilene visitors' bureau, most of the home’s furnishings were purchased at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. They cost more than the $55,000 that was spent building the-11,000 square-foot home, which features the original Edison light fixtures and Tiffany-style mantel. The home was built for Dr. Alfred Barns Seelye, a wealthy producer of patent medicines, and his wife, Jennie. Photo by Carol Highsmith.
