Askiguru has discovered 5 Museum Objects Our Governments Will Never Show!
1.Photos Hidden at a Family Heritage Museum
Model and known illustrator Zoe Mozert makes amazing paintings and has created hundreds of paintings and magazine covers featuring Hollywood starlets and pin-up girls. Among her most famous works is the poster for the controversial Howard Hughes film, The Outlaw, starring Jane Russell. But “naked is the problem” with the self-portrait and this is why government doesn’t allow this paintings in museums. Museum are family-oriented and how any museum is suppose to show this paintings. If someday government allows this paintings and this paintings will have to put in a separate room, behind a black curtain.”
2.Thumbs Out on Halloween
Among the treasures in the Tennessee State Museum in Nashville are President Andrew Johnson’s piano and a $240 check issued by the Republic of Texas to David “Davy” Crockett’s estate after his death at the Alamo. The museum also has what was is said to be the mummified thumb from the right hand of John A. Murrell, a notorious criminal who roamed Tennessee and along the Mississippi River in the early 1800s. Because doubts have surfaced over the years as to whether or not the thumb is actually Murrell’s, it was asked to keeps the digit in storage by government. But government allows it to be removed during halloween. It resides in a specially made tiny casket that is taken out during the museum’s annual Halloween event, when ghost stories and local legends are told.
3.Monkeys Gone Wild
The single-story, nine-acre museum in Dearborn, Michigan, known as The Henry Ford displays everything from bicycles, buses, cars, airplanes and locomotives to unusual artifacts such as a test tube sealed and taken from the bedroom where Thomas Edison took his last breath. As big as it is, the museum still has treasures tucked away. One example: the diorama made around 1914 of 70 monkeys gambling, drinking and working in a saloon – all activities that the diorama maker, an resident in a Massachusetts prison, believed led otherwise upstanding people astray.
4.A Felon’s Manual
During a multi-year crime spree that stretched from Washington’s San Juan Islands to Canada and the Bahamas, Colton Harris-Moore (dubbed the “Barefoot Bandit”) committed dozens of break-ins and stole cars, boats, bikes and planes. In 2012, after Harris-Moore was captured and put in jail, the Orcas Island Historical Museum in Washington, received boxes of declassified evidence from the trial. Many area residents would rather their local museum not give more publicity to a felon, so for now items such as the pilot’s manual Harris-Moore ordered online in order to teach himself to fly are kept tucked away. This manual has some really confidential information and which is why government didn’t allow to keep it in museum.
5.Gun Control in Dayton
John Dillinger – dubbed Public Enemy is best known for a Depression-era crime spree of bank robberies, jail breaks and alleged murders in the Midwest that transformed him from a petty criminal into an infamous gangster and folk legend. He broke out of a supposedly escape-proof jail in Crown Point, Indiana in 1934 armed with a carved wood gun, but a very real gun he used in a robbery in 1933 is part of the collection managed by Dayton History in Ohio. The historical value of the artifact and concern over being able to exhibit the gun in a secure manner are among the reasons it is rarely, if ever displayed. So for now the gun remains housed in a safe, climate-controlled archive center somewhere in Ohio. Displaying the gun isn’t a problem but it can be dangerous and so the government took the decision of not displaying it.
