Description:
This museum is where you can discover that the son of Frank Lloyd Wright invented Lincoln Logs in 1920, that Tinker Toys were the result of a stonemason watching his kids play with old thread spools and pencils, and that the inventor of the Erector Set had a medical degree and won the Olympic gold medal at pole vaulting. This historic house contains a wealth of American memorabilia coupled with information on the people who created these popular inventions.
