A special thanks to Robb Nelson, our friend Cryssy who works here, and everyone else who works here at the Stuhr Museum for their help with this video. If you ever get a chance to visit this place, I highly recommend it. Or if you can't visit here, visit a museum in your hometown. Yep, your hometown probably has a museum that you didn't know about. Thanks for watching.
