This Gallery in Fairmount has quite a few show cases with James Dean items, vintage and newer, to be viewed and a film room that shows films about and with James Dean. It also has a resale shop with lots of cool 50's and 60's items, including a massive inventory of paperback books on movies and music. Also new books on James Dean and similar artists are available there at excellent prices. We stop in when we are traveling through on I-69 - it is about a 5 mile drive from the interstate t Fairmount. Definitely worth a trip there.
