Once inside the found items go floor to ceiling. In addition to assortments of shoes, camera bags and other lost-at-sea items, Anderson displays a row of Raggedy Ann heads that are a bit unnerving. Anderson jokes that if you are ever stranded on the beach and need to brush your teeth it is likely a tooth brush will wash up on shore. Yes, he even has a container full of used tooth brushes on display. Mixed in with mundane items that have been thrown into the sea are other items that tell of life lost. One of the most compelling items on
display is an unused survival suit. The suit came from a vessel that sank off the mouth of the Columbia River that sank so fast the crew didn’t have time to take advantage of their survival suits, all hands lost. The unused suit eventually washed up on shore. Anderson’s collection of plastic buoys, glass and plastic floats, fishing weights, hooks, nets and other fishing-related items is impressive and vast.
