Angels Camp Museum

In our small town of Angels Camp is a pretty amazing museum. It has a wide collection of all things Angels Camp. There is a good collection of jumping frog competition memorabilia. There is also many items from the medical community spanning the last century and more.

But the real gem of the place is the collection of wagons and vehicles that moved the people here through the last 170+ years. Here is a horse drawn hearse gold trim and gold and black shakers on top.

There is an early fire truck with a very uncluttered dashboard.

You will notice that the manufacturer's emblem on the front of the radiator has a six-pointed star. Interestingly, they are not jewish, rather protestant. This is just the emblem they choose.

There are fancy wagons with lights for night travel.

This stagecoach seems a good bit fancier that most must have been. So nice and clean, too.
