A stunning tribute to 20th century popular culture located in historic
Columbus, Texas
... at IH-10 & Hwy 71 between Houston and San Antonio
Someone once told Mary Elizabeth Hopkins that if you have three or more of anything then you are a collector. Hopkins was certainly that! Having received her first Santa Claus in 1913, when she was just six months old, Hopkins expanded the collection over her lifetime to include more than 2,000 figurines. Today, a visit to the Mary Elizabeth Hopkins Santa Claus Museum is like a walk through 20th Century Americana. |
