American Dime Museum

Sadly, I heard on the radio that the American Dime Museum shut its doors for good last weekend, and they auctioned off all of the freak displays. My friend and I tried to go a couple weeks ago and couldn't get anyone to answer the phone, and then when we drove by it was all dark inside. It's too bad, because of all places, a freak dime museum belongs in Baltimore! [Monica Gallagher, 03/04/2007]

[RA: It's been a big loss for even an oddball-packed metropolis like Baltimore. The collection was sold piece by piece, with antiques dealers buying items simply to resell at a profit. And we haven't yet heard the fate of one of the most important exhibits: Lincoln's Last Bowel Movement. Was it auctioned, or scooped up secretly by the Power Elite?]
