What would happen if one or more serious bead collectors approached the Illinois State Museum about a private purchase of the Frost Collection? Rather than wait for them to donate it to some other museum that will bury it and, who knows, sell it out the back door at a later date.....Maybe members of our own community can become curators of this important collection and defy the trend to drive these collections into possible obscurity through museum closures.
