Custom wax dummies are too expensive, and too appealing as an attraction, to be thrown away. When a wax museum closes, the figures are bound to end up somewhere else.

Follow the Leaders Wax Museum

I was happy to stop by and see the wax figures at their new home. They look very nice, like they have had a bath since Cave City. The Einstein head, autographed by the man himself, is displayed so you can see the autograph (In Cave City they failed to even mention how significant the piece was).

The man who gave the tour was very nice and knowledgeable and very excited about the new museum. He said that they were outbid on Abraham Lincoln, but when they took the handkerchief off an outlaw figure, there was a repurposed Lincoln hiding underneath! He also said that the museum is expanding and acquiring more figures from other closed museums.

Cave City was the former home of Einstein, outlaw Lincoln, and the other wax dummies at the now-closed Mammoth Cave Wax Museum.
