Museum of Ephemerata report
I visited the Museum of Ephemerata's open house on Friday evening and it was delightful as promised. Some highlights:
Charming curators Jen and Scott |
Skull of P.T. Barnum's childhood pet, Marie Antoinette's mechanical egg, David Hasselhoff's Jolly Rancher and the bellybutton lint of David and Goliath |

The spirit of Barnum and the Victorian dime museums is alive and well. Contact the Museum or watch this space for announcements of future events.
