FYI the NJ State Police Museum in Ewing, NJ has a permanent exhibit on the
Lindberg baby kidnapping. (for those interested, if you're real nice and bring
me candy and bubble gum I might be persuaded take them out to see the Lindberg
house.)

My personal favorite at the museum was the interactive "crime scene" exhibits.

The museum is actually also kind of interesting from a preservation
perspecitve... to my mind, a pretty good example of adaptive re-use. The
police retained their original log cabin barracks, circa 1930, and integrated
it as part of a larger museum facility.
