I was at a museum with displays like this recently and it was just really sad compared to a lot of the museums I've visited. It was so obvious that they were operating on a shoestring budget. It was still interesting to me, but I'm a colossal nerd. It didn't have the same power to share information with the masses as museums that have actually invested in their experience design.
That rope is places pretty meticulously
I actually laughed when I noticed it in person.
It was a little bit underwhelming. It was clear the lion's share of money went the the U.S. Civil War displays, which were decent. From there onward the displays decreased in quality and size. It was obvious this was an overgrown Civil War museum that was trying to cover all eras. The display cards in Civil War exhibits were often lengthy and thorough, but by the modern era there was maybe a single sentence for most items.
The supposed modern displays were showing stuff from 2005 at the latest, and there were small mistakes or mistake-by-implication in the display cards.
