Fifteen years ago, Barack Obama and his family took the stage in Grant Park before 250,000 joyous people who were waving American flags and snapping photographs.

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s re-creation of that historic moment when Obama was elected the nation’s first Black president will be unveiled Friday to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Nov. 4, 2008, presidential election.
