Some other nice canoes can be found in:

2. The Museum on Indian Island in Old Town, Maine. They have a nice Penobscot Canoe.

3. The Museum at the University of Maine in has a nice canoe on display.

4. The Royal Ontario Museum has a huge canoe on display. It looks like the work of Caesar Newashish an Eastern Cree.

5. The Peabody Museum at Harvard University has a number of birchbark canoes but you need to set an appointment to see them - don't just show up.

6. Ralph Frese at Chicagoland Canoe Base has a museum with a number of bark canoes.
