Weird and Wonderful: The Dime Museum in America
Andrea Stulman Dennett
Dioramas and panoramas, freaks and magicians, waxworks and menageries, obscure relics and stuffed animals - a dazzling assortment of curiosities attracted the gaze of the nineteenth-century spectator at the dime museum. This title recaptures this ephemeral and scarcely documented institution of American culture from the margins of history.
