Two surplus places that I know of...

Gateway Electronics 314-427-6116 or (800-669-5810) 8123 Page Blvd. - St.
Louis, MO 63130
Gateway is mostly modern stuff, but they have an isle or two that is quite
old stuff. Not great, but worth a look-see.

Electronics Exchange 314-426-4263 they moved, but are on St. Charles Rock
Road in the St. Ann area.
Electronics exchange is all surplus, never know what you'll find there.
Inventory changes a lot so I go every 2 weeks.

Museums - not a lot to speak of. St. Louis science center is cool, but
mostly oriented for children. I have heard rumor of a museum of technology
and engineering, NOT part of the St. Louis Science center, but I've never
been able to find it.

Then, if you're into mini's, you can see my junque heap sometime sunday if
you'd like. Contact me off-list for number, etc. if you want to do that.
