This is just a view of a couple of signs in the
manager's office...all these were found in Brown's mule junction! (The tall ones are Dr.

three on the right are also Dr. Pierce. |

The manager's desk... (And a few signs)! Top center

The East wall is the first wall of signs you view
as you have come down the stair entrance into the museum. |

Just around the corner, (facing North), a small
presentation of signs awaits. |

A display of Porcelain signs graces the East wall.
