I was going to mention the fabulous Museum of Jurassic Technology, but Dan beat me to it! If you’re in LA, it’s worth a visit!

The American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore is another one worth the trip if you’re ever in town. Specializing in “outsider art” the exhibits are really something to behold.

The American Dime Museum was another great, freaky museum, but they shut down this past February & auctioned off all of their oddities.

Two notable mid-western non-mentioneds:
The St. Louis City Museum is a mix of children’s playground, surrealistic pavilion, and architectural marvel made out of unique, found objects. Complete with an outdoor 50ft “jungle gym” made from trolley’s, buses, planes and more, with a heap of salvaged architectural pieces from St. Louis past.
In Chicago there is the International Museum of Surgical Sciences which, just as it says, features exhibits from around the world that trace the fascinating story of surgery’s development through the ages.
