 Cabinet of Curiosities exhibit (the exhibit is fictionally set in the Museum of Natural History in 1927) and we are searching for elements to dress into our set. We are looking for all sorts of things: bones, fossils, artifacts, taxidermy, and all sorts of
 oddities. We are trying to source (and rent or buy) these materials from either a small museum or a private collector, so I thought I would reach out to you and see if you might have any ideas or suggestions...<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 we don't have to be too scientifically accurate, and we are looking for a wide variety of things. Some examples:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
