We spent last week in San Antonio and of course we visited the Alamo touring both the church and the museum. They had a lot of Alamo memorabilia from Phil Collins of the band Genesis. Phil was an Alamo artifact collector and he donated his entire collection to the museum as well as commissioning a diorama of the battle as well as a 20 minute narration of the battle. There were a number of rifles attributed to defenders of the Alamo as well as a goodly collection of other artifacts he had acquired over his career. Although as always there is an "expert" nearby to point out the inaccuracies and the "expert" behind me loudly informed his friend that the caplock in the collection couldn't possibly be from the Alamo because they hadn't been invented yet. I didn't say anything.
