MONDAY MUSINGS: do you collect anything like baseball cards/ beanie babies/ cars, etc...?
Well, one Little Rock resident has quite a collection of purses, in fact~ 4,000. So she created a museum to showcase her collection, dedicating it to their design and function.
The Esse Museum is one of two purse museums in the world.
Photos of women through the decades specifically 1900- 1990's illustrate the presence of purses.
Of course, exhibits change as there are a lot of purses to display. Our group was able to view the Secret History of Economics.
And if one is wondering if your purse is too heavy, you can even weigh it. Guess which weight is recommended!
Exhibits showed all sorts of objects carried in purses throughout the years... You may be surprised at the array of contents.
And as most women tend to always need another purse there is a great gift shop that supports other small businesses...
Go visit the Esse Museum and travel through history.
