The P.I. Museum is located in San Diego, California and is the world’s only museum dedicated to finding, acquiring, preserving and displaying historic treasures from P.I. History.

The museum has a very serious research and documentation purpose and goal, yet retains a youthful sense of adventure and wonderment about this endlessly fascinating profession.
The museum balances its collecting efforts between the real and the fictional.
You are as likely to find an actual letter penned in 1852 by the hand of Eugene Francois Vidocq or a spy camera, as you are to find your favorite Dick Tracy collectible.
Ben began a lifelong endeavor towards collecting items of historical significance and authenticity from three eras - the 1890's the 1940's and contemporary.
The museum is located at:
923 Island Ave.
San Diego, California 92101.

Memberships are available for as little as $25, and of course Ben is always looking for unique items to add to the display.
