Cold War artifacts?

Question

I need a list of 15 Cold War artifacts. Artifacts can include absolutely ANYTHING from the Cold War, regardless of size or availability. For example, one artifact could be the Berlin Wall, regardless of the plausibility of something such as that. Any artifacts at all are helpful. Thank you

Answer 5

i think it's www.coldwarmuseum.org or .com, i can't remember. do a Yahoo search for Civil Defense Museum, they'll lead you the right direction.

one of the best Cold War artifact sites I've ever seen.

also, you might try to get your hands on a movie called "The Atomic Cafe"...words can't describe it, it is a fabulous movie. it's a very obscure title, you won't be able to find it at your local Blockbuster Video...Amazon.com sells it though. it is worth the price.
