The Arkansas Aerospace Education Center, home of the Jay Miller Collection, has apparently closed for good.

Does anyone know the fate of the Miller Collection? Any why am I always too damn late to find these things out?
 
Hmmm. Some background:

This probably didn't help things along:

And it looks like the books are going somewhere else:

Maybe they let Scott Lowther make a second visit with a U-Haul this time. ;D
 
Do you know were are now the photos, negatives, slides, and other transparencies of the Miller collection ? Thanks
 
What ever happened to Jay Miller? Did he pass away? I used to work for him decades ago and haven't heard anything from him since.
 
What happened to the collection of photos ? Was it sold ?
 
The Jay Miller Aviation Collection is now housed in the San Diego Air and Space Museum (SDASM) :

Didn't Orion BB make a raid on the place at one point? (I seem to recall there being a one-time offer at the time.) ???
