It is on my 'bucket list' to go to Springfield, Mass., and see the National Park Service display. I would allow adequate time, contact the Curator well in advance, and request to see some specific pieces, by collection number, that are not on public display.

In the meantime, I do enjoy seeing old pictures of parts of the collection, as it appeared in various eras.

Attached: 1. Postcard of the collection, sent in 1911. 2. 1940. 3.&4. 1950s ?? 5. 1960s ?
