Wood County Historical Museum

Wood County Historical Museum (Bowling Green, Ohio)

Why stop in Bowling Green? Why, to see the fingers of Mary Bach, of course! Roadside America explains what it’s all about: “… their prized display — three human fingers in a jar. The fingers belonged to Mary Bach, who was murdered. The knife used to sever the fingers, and the noose used to hang the man who severed them, are proudly presented alongside the popular Tater Tot-like appendages. ‘Those fingers built this museum,’ the curator boasts.” (Special thanks to Kathy Harrington for sending me the Roadside America link.)
