Absolutely loved this museum. The cars were beautiful, but I firm's myself reading more about the clothing from each time period. I enjoyed how this museum was set up so you walk through the evolution of cars and clothing. The details in the information plaques was quite entertaining. Definitely a must see when in Fairbanks!
