Bizarre Museums
RV Hall of Fame and Museum
Thousands of museums in the United States document important events and valuable objects. But if it’s the funny and offbeat you’re after, hightail it to the Plumbing Museum, the Pencil Sharpener Museum and these other offbeat and somewhat off-kilter places.
Recreational vehicles weren’t always the gas-guzzling behemoths we see barreling down the road today. At the RV Museum and Hall of Fame in Elkhart, Ind., you’ll see tiny towable trailers and marvelous motorhomes dating back to the 1920s and ’30s, including Mae West’s 1931 Chevrolet Housecar and a 1915 Model T roadster equipped with a telescoping apartment.
