TheSpectacles are an item in the PC release ofMario's Time Machine. They are the sole pair of eyeglasses ofAbraham Lincoln, which he needs for reading. In 1863, as he is about to read out hisEmancipation Proclamation at theWhite House inWashington, D.C.,Bowser travels back in time and steals them, preventing him from reading his speech. After he then exhibits it inhis museum for stolen artifacts, Mario steals them back and time travels to Washington, D.C. himself to return the Spectacles. Mario then questions various individuals around the White House about his surroundings and the Spectacles, as he does not know that they belong to Lincoln. WhenFrederick Douglass sees them, he thinks that they belong toMary Todd Lincoln, as she is very forgetful. Eventually, Mario figures out that the Spectacles belong to Abraham and returns them to him. He then thanks Mario and takes them so that he can read out his speech.
