The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures , formerly known as the Kansas City Toy and Miniature Museum, houses the world's largest collection of fine-scale miniatures and antique toys. Located on the campus of the University of Missouri Kansas City in a John McKecknie designed building, the museum was founded in 1982 with items from avid collectors and lifelong friends Mary Harris Francis and Barbara Hall Marshall. Boasting more than 33,000 square feet of exhibit space, the museum has been in operation for more than three decades and features more than 72,000 objects such as the world’s largest collection of marbles, collections of teddy bears, Tinker Toys and Barbie Dolls.
