Nethercutt Museum






















































Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar, California. Mr. J. B. Nethercutt, co-founder of the Merle Norman Cosmetics company was a rich old man. He bought over 200 cars. We can now see them in his Museum and at the Collection across from the Museum. You need a reservation to see the Collection, however.

There are a lot of old priceless cars, such as a hundred year old Rolls Royce. A lot of these cars are Concours d'Elegance winners. This place is a must see, especially if you are car crazy like me. He also has a collection of antique musical instruments. If you were a tycoon, what would you have in your collection? Mine would include a boatload of modern exotic cars. One for every day of the year.

you have a lovely family and evidently take some really fun outings!

if a tycoon, i would be sure we had a unique, varied & exotic collection of antiques. huge architectural pieces from all over. a lion to guard to garden, a welcoming diety on the porch, columns in the courtyard. oh, and i'd have a courtyard.

Thanks, Portia.

It's nice to daydream about being obscenely rich. I'm fantasizing about my sports cars right now.
