Yeah it was bit hard to find, hidden right at the back of the hospital.
Anyway, it was a good place, and had some interesting stuff.

Amen! I was so stoked that they had his church model. For a long time it was behind closed doors along with the skeleton and plaster casts.

Yeah i knew there was items but was blown away when i saw the cap and mask. I went with my girlfriend, i knew there was stuff there about merrick, but never knew it was going to be so concise. Ive been interested in joseph at a very young age, so getting to see this stuff was great.

I do know of an item that is still in storage, his chair, it was suppose to be in the gallery of items. But for some reason it went into storage

Oh yeah. I've been in communication with Ms. Jeanette Sitton, the owner of The Joseph Carey Merrick Tribute Website, and she assures me the chair will be on display in the near future. The lucky so-and-so actually got a chance it sit it it!!! Can you believe that?

Anyway, its great to see another Merrick fan. I assure you there will be plenty more Elephant Man art coming.

Great to hear about the chair. And even better to hear from another in this interest.

Oh yeah! It's always great to see another Merrick fan.
I think its safe to assume you've seen the David Lynch film, judging by you avatar. What did you think of it?
