Itinerary
Today, travel with Anderson Coach to Indiana, PA, the hometown of Movie Legend Jimmy Stewart. Start with a guided tour of The Jimmy Stewart Museum. You will be greeted by “Harvey” or “Clarence” with photo ops (subject to availability).
The Museum is filled with wonderful memorabilia from Stewart’s Hollywood career, WWII military service and his personal life. Displays are full of original movie posters, photos, costumes, and artifacts beginning from the 1930s and on. Awards and citations from the military, Hollywood, film critics, the Boy Scouts, and many others fill the walls and cases. Four of Jimmy Stewart’s military uniforms are on display as well as the original booth from Chasen’s Restaurant that Jimmy and his family always sat at. You will also watch a biography of Jimmy Stewart’s life in the vintage theater.
Jimmy personally selected favorite mementos to display, such as his Winchester commemorative rifle, the cowboy hat he wore in most of his westerns, the hat he wore in the movie Harvey, and a propeller blade autographed by the cast and crew of the Flight of the Phoenix. Personal letters from past Presidents and Frank Capra are also on display.
Lunch is also included today at a local downtown restaurant. You will also enjoy a visit from a Jimmy Stewart impersonator.
Late afternoon departure for home.
