Unique collection of artifacts at Arms

YOUNGSTOWN

A new exhibit at the Arms Family Museum, 648 Wick Ave., showcases the collection of Benjamin Franklin Wirt, who was a Youngstown lawyer and businessman who served as a state senator for four years beginning in 1889.

An avid traveler, Wirt amassed a unique collection of rare ancient artifacts, artwork, Asian decorative arts, books, autographs and manuscripts.

He intended to develop a museum for his collection, but that never came to fruition. The collection is now under the care of the Mahoning Valley Historical Society.

Visitors will see a variety of items, including famous autographs, artifacts from the War of 1812, a Persian (Iranian) perfume bottle, Chinese embroidery and a Native American basket.

Museum hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. Admission is $4 ($3 for seniors, $2 for children).
