I just got back from visiting the MET in New York City. It was awesome. This is the only museum armor I've seen. I travel around the US a lot, so my question is "Are there any other cool museums with armor in the US?" Idealy I would like to see earlier armor, but anything would be nice.

Last time I was there the Cleveland art museum had a good armor collection, I haven't been there in a few years and I heard they renovated, so I can't make any guarantees.

Actually all the REALLY good stuff is on the West Coast... of Europe. The East Cost of the US just happens to have the left-overs and extras because it's closer.

The Los Angeles Natural History Museum (?!!!!) has a large armour collection...

...NONE of which has been on display for decades.

Damnit!
