Artifacts from the Asylum are out there - plates,
spoons, postcards - the staple souvenirs that most
mental hospitals of the era sold as a means of
making extra money.
With recent interest from certain museums we have
begun actively searching for these pieces of the past
in hopes that those who own them might be willing
to donate a piece or two to an exhibit regarding the
asylum. As we come across items they will be
added to their individual artifact areas if at all
possible.
