RE: Do You Want To Go To A Place Where You Cannot Tell If The Exhibits Are Real or A Product of A Madman?

I was curious about the decaying dice and followed the link you had posted to review information on them. I was surprised to find that dice are made of cellulose nitrate and, after being stable for many decades, suddenly start to crumble. I also was amused to read that the states of decay of the dice was covered by the owner by hiring a photographer who specializes in photographing decaying things !!!@stellabelle - Seems that the museum is really full of unusual things related and also unrelated to natural history.

Thanks for pointing the way to this interesting museum.

I am continuing to focus on my beloved wildlife blogs (with my original photos and content). I have posted one about Brave-heart lion cubs -
Lions in the making - A cub's story. I request you to take a look when you have time. Your comments would be eagerly awaited. Thanks.

glad you found the decaying dice as interesting as I did.

I found the original post interesting but for some reason even with all I cannot unsee from the internet I am surprised there is a photographer that specializes in taking pictures of decaying things.
