The Spertus Museum relics were amazing, I was, however, disappointed of the lack of detail and information on those pieces. As for the exhibit I was expecting to be inspired but I couldn’t believe it was actually considered museum worthy. I did make quite a few purchases in the Museum Store, It was more fascinating then the museum itself. more
