In my opinion, the historical articles I read on this site are by FAR the best part of MetroJacksonville.com.

Kudos to the author, very very well done!

Awesome article as usual, Sarah. It's been years since I went to that museum; I'll have to check it out again next time I'm in the neighborhood.

The design of the outside of the museum building is so horrible, I have never stepped inside.  This article may cause me to finally cross that threshold and peek at its contents.
