T.T. Wentworth, Jr. Museum

In Pensacola, Florida you'll find the Theodore Thomas Wentworth, Jr. museum which holds such oddities as a Lincoln Head made from $8,000 of pulped money and a petrified cat. Wentworth had been exhibiting odd and strange items since the 1929s but he officially opened his museum in 1957. By the time of his retirement in 1983, he amassed over 150,000 objects (many of them were given to him by the people of Pensacola).
