FILE - In this Nov. 4, 2008 file photo, then-President-elect Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama, wearing a Narciso Rodriguez dress, acknowledge the crowd after he delivered his victory speech at his election night party at Grant Park in Chicago. Curators at the National Archives have culled their collection in search of some of the great signatures of history. A special exhibit opening Friday includes the personal marks of figures that include Thomas Jefferson, Frank Sinatra, Jackie Robinson, Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein, along with important documents from history. For the first time, the black dress worn by Michelle Obama on the night of the 2008 election is going on display. It was designed by Narcisco Rodriguez. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais, File)
