Is there a camera museum in the US worthy of this object? The Museum at Miami University in Oxford, OH, is no longer open; I called this past summer and tried to get in. The Smithonian's collection (the largest in the US) is totally unavailable for anyone to see. What happened to Bingham's Leica's as the California Museum of Photography at U Cal Riverside? (Bingham founded the place as I understand it and left his Leica collection to the museum.) I have not been to George Eastman House in Rochester. Does anyone know of any decent camera museums in the US?
