Boats are suspended above automobiles like cartoon
thought bubbles. An alien autopsy (performed with au-
thentic 1940s and 1950s medical instruments) shares
space with a reenactment of an old-fashioned soda hop.
If the collection skews toward the mid-century, it feels
apropos for Gil's hyperreal, maybe even surreal vision
of America. A "Viking" longship created out of hubcaps
vies for attention with a two-headed calf and a metal
scrap sculpture of a giant insect right out of a 1950s sci-
ence fiction movie.
And then there are the motorcycles—Gil's particular
pride, especially this one, his favorite, with his grand-
daughter Des pictured in the sidecar (left page).
The Miracle of America Museum is a diorama of Amer-
ica—or more specifically, given its international and
even sometimes cosmic range of artifacts, it is a model
of one Montana man's view of the America he grew up
in. That it is presented with all of the oddity, strange-
ness, and good humor of its founder elevates it above
the merely informational into the rarified realm of the
miraculous.
