Natural History Museum says…

Whether you cherish the memory of dueling dino skeletons from long-ago field trips, or a more recent late-night music show amongst stuffed-buffalo-and-antelope dioramas, you probably already know that LA's Natural History Museum is a treasure trove of fascinating artifacts rescued from millennia long passed. In its Treasures from the Vault exhibition, the museum pulls out the gems of its collection — the pieces too rare and fragile to come out of storage but once in a decade. Check out a flight log handwritten by Amelia Earhart, an extraordinarily well-preserved dinosaur fossil (scales and all), and oh-so-much more.
