Thanks for the story. It would be cool if there was a space in DTSS where the pinball museum could showcase machines on a regular basis. Would be a nice addition to the Discovery lobby.

JD- I see the address on the website, it kind of leads you to think that this is the address to send funds to. If he doesn’t want people to visit it and perhaps spend some $$, what does he want? I’m confused.

Who are the people in the picture? Are they Penguin staff?

The museum's address can be found on its website's "contact us" page. The museum doubles as its curator's home, so I can understand why he was reluctant to give out an address.

I told him that an article was in the Penguin and I checked the website and there is no mention where this place is. I thought it was downtown someplace. He said “What’s the Penguin “? and never would give me an address, I figured he didn’t have one.

I contacted this museum website after the first article appeared and asked where the museum was located. He was very evasive and asked why I wanted to know and questioned what the penguin was, etc. Bottom line he never would tell us where this thing is.

Editor’s note: Wait, what do you mean this guy didn’t know what The Penguin was?!? — JD (Nov 25, 2009)

Holy crap! A pinball museum? Time to make a donation to someone... Editor's note: Earlier this year, the Penguin newsroom held a pledge drive via Twitter to bring the pinball museum to downtown Silver Spring. We raised about $103 (in quarters, of course). Major kudos to the Penguin's Twitter buddies! -- JD (Nov 24, 2009)
