The Museum of Americanism.
The secret Klan museum is where Klan artifacts, records, history, memorabilia, and all other documentation and relics of the KKK (as far as is known and preserved) are stored. Do not ask the location of the museum. Do not ask if you can visit the museum. The answer is "NO!" Only a select few who are in the "know" are permitted to see the museum. None of these items are for sale. They are museum exhibits only.
We do have a project going to get a suitable building that can be open to visitors in general. (But, not to the general public.) This will take money. Those who donate to the museum will be allowed to visit the museum for free when it is completed and "open". Those who donate KKK artifacts, relics, and memorabilia will also be allowed to visit the museum for free and see their donated items on display. If you would like to donate to the museum building fund e-mail us. If you have any questions or want further details on the project e-mail us, also.
(1) The home of the
secret Klan museum?? I bought this building at a tax auction for $327.00. It used to be an
Odd Fellows lodge and could have also been a Klavern Hall in the 1920's. After considering
the cost to renovate the building, I decided that it would cost too much. So, the building
was torched for fire drill practice for the local fire department and I sold the land for
$1,500.00. Not a bad profit.

The two plaques above look the same. Though they are similar, there are several differences.

Rare steam flat iron, circa 1920's. "KKK" appears on top between the ends of the handle. The KKK was not in the iron manufacturing business. But, many businesses and manufacturers tried to capitalize on the Klan's popularity by getting "KKK" on their products or into their advertising any way possible. For example, the Keokuk Medicine Company had "KKK" on their labels. There, also, was Karen's Korner Kitchen and Kwick Kwality Kleaners to site just two more examples.
