I mean, all of these photos are from an actual museum in Yorkshire.
Rob, you should open a small museum in some windswept town on the Yorkshire coast, Filey or whatever, Rob Palk's Museum of Marvels and Wonders with a dancing lager drinking bear automaton and loads of this sort of kitsch stuff. You wouldn't need to physically be there. Cash cow.
