Greetings All!
Well, it's been a long time, but we've finally gotten the time to spend on the Museum. Paula and I have been extremely busy, but we promise to dedicate more time to the preservation of Origin's past.
Lots of new acquisitions have occurred over the last several months. A few Ex-Originites have contacted us, and added to the Museum's ever-growing inventory. Here are a few of the specifics:
Daniel Bourbonnais-Origin artist (1989-1992) Dan was nice enough to contact us, and offer some unique items from his collection. Among these are a few Wing Commander 2 'cels', the photo-ready board for the 'WingLeader' cover (the title that was to become Wing Commander), and 2 boxes FULL of 5.25 disks from the day! The treasure hunt for more relics is on!

(Thanks to the guys at the CIC for their articles!)
Mark Vittek- Origin Developer Extrodinaire! Mark was at Origin from 1990 thru 2002, and collected a multitude of Origin artifacts. After winning an Ebay auction for a Crusader 'standee', Mark was gracious enough to donate a HUGE box of Origin memorabilia to the cause! The CIC did an article on this event, and we are most thankful to Mark for his generosity!

I'll post again about some other donations soon. In the meantime, please let us know what you think!
