Rufus Porter (circa 1850) invented the revolver of which the Colts bought the rights from him. He published the "Scientific American", a magazine still sold today, was a teacher, mural painter, author, and invented an airship/blimp that he hoped would carry '49ers to the Calif. Gold Rush, and was the Martha Stewart of his day - doing it all! This teensy museum is devoted to him and his many accomplishments and has seasonal exhibits on the "rustic arts" where classes can be taken. The highlights are murals painted by him and his son that are displayed on the very walls from historic homes. A move to a larger, more stable building in town is planned for 2014(?) .Gift shop. No photos. Allow 1 hour minimum. $10.00 Adm. fee
