Norman is a local that came to Ocean Falls 28 years ago. Long after it had mostly been demolished.
He has been collecting memorabilia and keeping it on display in a series of room in the old marine ways building. He is happy to take visitors on tours.
He has quite a huge collection!
He has all kinds of things from toys to tools. All items that we abandoned in the town. A lot of items from the old pulp mills as well.
A couple of old postcards of what the town used to look like before it was torn down
This was a large painted map of the town.
Nearly Normal Norman doesn't like to call it a "museum". It was quite the place! He was quite the character and he had a few fascinating stories to tell -- one about his frog collection. Haha. Too long to repeat.
Great someone had tried to keep some of the history going.......
