From Provo City website: Museum artifacts include furniture, clothing, decorations, tools, guns, and other items used by Utah Pioneer prior to 1900. Most were donated by Utah County families. We also have a large collection of photographs and histories of early Pioneers of which copies can be obtained. The museum has 13 original paintings of Provo Artist Samuel Jepperson, including the two Provo Forts, Fort Utah and Fort Provo. Prints of one of his paintings are available in our gift shop, the original is currently hanging in the Provo City Mayors office. The museum is proud to have in its collections the doll collection that belonged to Cleo Heavener Pierce. ( visit link)
