Posted: Jul 18, 2017 07:43 Post subject: Theft from the Franklin Mineral Museum, New Jersey

In Franklin Mineral Show Tracy gave to us some info about the Franklin Mineral Museum related with her visit in 2008 to the Franklin Mineral Show.

Unfortunately I should add bad news related with the Franklin Mineral Museum because on the past June 19th more than $30,000 worth of gems and minerals were stolen in the early morning:

A local resident has posted a reward of $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the theft:

Hopefully some one could help...
