The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Ma Huang Sor - 05-10-2012 www.mnae.org Awesome website. The Museum itself reminds me of that shop in House of 1000 Corpses, but it's legit, looks like. Stuff like the last cigarette Marilyn smoked before she died, and a real lock of Elvis' hair. Check it out ![]() ![]() RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Donovan - 05-10-2012 I always wondered what people who buy that shit on Ebay would possibly want with that stuff. RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Ma Huang Sor - 05-10-2012 I like the Jesus Toast exhibit ![]() RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - HairOfTheDog - 05-10-2012 I like weird museums. One of the quirkiest ones that I've been to is here in the SF Bay Area. I took my niece to the Museum of Pez Memorabilia when she was 10; really fun. Every single Pez dispenser ever made is on display. Cheap to get in; but of course I ended up spending a lot of money in the gift shop because she just had to have some of her favorites. She still displays them in her room, so well worth it though. Haven't made it to Legoland in San Diego yet, but my youngest nephew is pushing me for this summer. Should be cool too. RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Ma Huang Sor - 05-10-2012 I used to have a Pez collection. I bought them as a kid in the 50's and 60's and sold them on eBay for pretty big dollars a few years ago. Just like my comic book collection. I bought every Marvel comic as it came out starting in '61. Sold them in the mid 90's during the boom. RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - blueberryhill - 05-10-2012 Mr Sor, I have an autograph of John Wayne. I was an airline stewardess and he, cast and crew of The Alamo" rode back and forth with us. Chill Wills, Richard Widmark, John Ford, etc. Autograph was written on back of postcards which airlines used to provide. I want to sell it on ebay but have no idea how much it is worth. Could you recommend someone? On ebay, the autographs are usually copies of his signature. RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Ma Huang Sor - 05-10-2012 Autographs are an interesting thing. Is it to you, or just his signature? If you can prove it's authenticity, it can range between $750 and $3,000 depending on the item signed, the date, and what was written. EDIT: then there's stuff like this, which he probably signed several dozen of, they go for 300 ![]() Wayne, John Photo Signed Autograph "Idol Of The Crowds" Early Movie Scene Item# newitem214103540 Price: $299.00 Availability: Usually ships in 3-4 business days RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Donovan - 05-10-2012 (05-10-2012, 02:02 PM)HairOfTheDog Wrote: I like weird museums.

In my town there is a place called the Strong Museum of Play and National Toy Hall of Fame, which not only houses hundreds of thousands of toys but also a gigantic collection of old stuff once owned by the daughter of a local rich guy, Margaret Woodbury Strong. She was supremely wealthy and a hoarder, and finally donated her whole collection essentially starting the museum itself. Great place, lot of online access for those of you on the other side of the country, but if you ever get out this way look it up. RE: The Museum Of Natural Ephemerata - Ma Huang Sor - 05-10-2012 That place is amazing. I've read a little about MWStrong. Her knowledge introduced me to the Chien tin windup swiss toys of the 40s and 50's, including the most delicious sets of windup rollercoasters you've ever seen. |
