I thoroughly enjoyed my swing through the Valley Relics Museum last year when I was in LA. They have a wonderful collection of pop culture, restaurant and landmark memorabilia from LA (and specifically the San Fernando Valley) from the '50s through today. Their collection ranges from music venues items to pinball machines to western film mementos. Their love of the city and the business of the past is evident. The collect is organized well and a lot of fun to peruse. The neon sign collection alone is worth a visit. This great find is definitely worth the hour or 90 minutes you will want to look around. Highly recommend!
