The Museum is always interested in acquiring by donation significant items from the history of the model car hobby. Sometimes those items are building
artifacts, or we might receive a famous model with "history" in our hobby. For instance, we acquired a mystery model, and a box of vintage AMT trophies from the West Coast of the United States, on Bob Henninger.
Or, sometimes, written documents and like are contributed. Bob Paeth has recently donated some very revealing historical items from the early Sixties at Revell. Sometimes,
Museum supporters restore a famous model of theirs, like Rick Harris' Regional Paint Winner
in the Revell-Pactra I contest and then donate that model to the Museum. If the donated models need repair or restoration we turn to helpful builders to refinish
– or just clean up the model and place the same on display. If you know of any historically important or significant items, like the Car Model
Crusader.
We've also acquired the following items:
