Touring the Grice Museum
As with any great museum, you enter and exit through the gift shop!
The entrance to the actual display area is a replica of the small gas station operated by Scoot and Janet Grice, who through hard work and determination ultimately transformed that small-time operation into a successful gun store that is now one of the largest in Pennsylvania.
In 1994 Scoot and Janet Grice constructed the Grice Museum and then donated it to the citizens of Clearfield.
Vintage muscle cars are well represented in the Grice Museum collection.
There are also examples of some more modern muscle cars as well.
The Grice Museum is home to a rare collection of Crosley cars, a small, independent vehicle manufacturer based in Cincinnati from 1939 to 1952.
If you enjoy collecting diecast vehicles, the Grice Museum has an extensive collection of those as well.
And of course you can’t miss the hundreds of mounted game animals and fish, harvested by many hunters and fishermen from around the world, displayed on the walls and floor of the Grice Museum.
