. . . of famous crimes, probably, that's why I put it here. But any favorite remembered Fortean object is welcome.
In the USA south, I've had numerous opportunities to see "Death Cars," bullet riddled 1930's wrecks, most of which have nothing to do with the heartless Bonnie & Clyde. Not interested. And I live walking distance to Lee Harvey Oswald's (and Nick Beef"s) grave. I intend to have a look at that someday.
But my impression of the sucked bit of toffee I saw in Madame Tussaud's Chamber of Horrors, in the display about the murderer Mary Piercy, when I was in London in 1974, will never leave me. My husband saw it a few years before I did and also thought it was exceptionally creepy.
 
One would be the much discussed Electric Chair poster on the Tube. I did see it.
Another would be The Second Biggest Pencil in the World at The Pencil Museum in the Lahe District.
Also...while I think about it.... Dr. Dee’s Scrying Stone.
