Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum at Wedgewood Resort
http://www.fountainheadmuseum.com
The Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum features over 70 historically significant American automobiles and showcases the interesting heritage of the automobile during Alaska’s post-Gold Rush era. The collection includes rare gems like a 1899 Hertel, 1904 Stevens-Duryea, 1917 Owen-Magnetic, 1921 Heine-Velox, 1933 Auburn V-12 and 1938 Elto Midget.
Visitors can also view the museum’s vintage fashion collection, which traces the progression of fashion from the late Victorian through early Swing eras. The changes in clothing styles are as dramatic as those in automotive design.
The Museum is located on the grounds of Wedgewood Resort, just minutes from downtown Fairbanks. The on-site hotel and suites, seasonal restaurant and adjacent wildlife sanctuary make this Fairbanks museum a perfect destination for all those who venture to the Last Frontier.
