Another Doll Museum Folds

“The building needs major maintenance, which we don’t have the money to do. And we have no volunteers anymore.”
— The Society of Memories Doll Museum in St. Joseph, Missouri, which was founded in 1968 and features more than 1,000 dolls and pieces of doll-related paraphernalia, closed its doors for the last time last week. If you never made it, they have some great photos of their exhibitions up on the website. This one is a favorite. This one, too. Aaand this one.
