Indy Whip on exhibit in Chicago

Post by Whipcrack »

As many of you know the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry have a Movie exhibit this summer, part of which is an IJ section with a whip on display. I have attached a link to the site and some pictures. My computer here at work has a dark screen but it looks like a 10 footer to me. What do you think?

We traveled to Chicago two summers ago and went to this museum. It has a captured Nazi Uboat you can go through and the Apollo 8 capsule, which was the first to circle the moon. Chicago is a great town, I hope to get back there this summer. A stop at Optimo would be another reason to go………

Thanks

I plan to go there later this summer as part of a longer trip. Keep in mind, however, that the U-boat exhibit is in the process of reconstruction and will not be open again until next year.
