Paul Bunyan Head at Museum of Science and Industry

The Paul Bunyan Head is back at the Museum of Science and Industry until September 1, 2014. He is in a temporary exhibit called 80 at 80. They are objects from their archives. You not only see his big face, but you can also see how he works by looking at the back of him. This exhibit is located on the lower level of the Museum, and he is on the right side of the exhibit (which is in two different halves).
