Is there such a thing? I have searched the Internet and can not find anything.

I do not think so as such but there is the odd thing about such as Jim Coldren's collection in Ellicott City near Baltimore.

An article about it appeared in the EUSPBA magazine The Voice and can be viewed online at:-

Ian,
Thanks for the article. It is hard to tell the size of the place, but I am thinking on a larger scale with maybe areas for Irish, Scottish, and English pipes and uniforms.
What is also hard to tell, is the manner of display. Some of the pictures make it look like he has pipes just laying around. Yikes!

Any business savvy people want to discuss the possibility?? :D
