St Petersburg Museum of History

As city history museums go, St Pete's is intriguingly oddball: a real 3000-year-old mummy, a two-headed calf and a life-size replica of a Benoist plane, plus exhibits on the bay's ecology and the Tampa Bay Rays, and the world's largest collection of autographed baseballs.
