Presidential Memorabilia Collection On Permanent Exhibit

College Station, TX - A collection of presidential signatures and images of presidents is now on permanent exhibit in the Orientation Theatre at the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum. The collection’s owner Ron Mafrige donated the collection to the museum in early 2005. Mafrige, a self-acclaimed “history buff,” has accumulated a cache of memorabilia from prominent WWII leaders to baseball legends. The extraordinary collection that he has donated to the museum includes signatures and images from every U.S. president, from George Washington to George W. Bush. It has been on display since late spring.
