World Largest Banana Collection

Back in January, when “Top Banana” Ken Bannister was forced to split (get it?) with his giant banana collection, out of the place that served as headquarters of the Banana Club and Museum, since 1972, things looked grim for banana lovers, everywhere.
But thanks to a substantial donation, of approximately $50,000, the Banana Museum will live on. When Banana Club founder, Ken Bannister, posted an ad on eBay, announcing he was wiling to part with his extensive collection, fellow fruit lover Fred Garbutt decided to become the new curator of the Banana Museum
Garbutt’s donation bought him a 17,000 item banana collection, including a banana golf club, banana drinks, and even a Michael Jackson banana. He has big plans for his purchase, which include buying a BMW and painting it yellow, selling banana-leaf wallpaper and making banana clothes, for kids. A real banana man, as Ken Bannister, himself said.
It can’t be easy for “Top Banana” Ken Bannister to leave his 38-year-long work, in the hands of someone else, but it’s better than letting it go to waste, that’s for sure.

Big Banana Mon here, just for the record, the Salton Sea is not polluted. Its wetlands are home to over 400 species of birds and is one of the most productive fisheries in the world. I do not know where the idea of me selling banana leaf wallpaper came from but let it be said “I do not plan on selling banana leaf wallpaper”, but I plan on decorating the interior walls of the museum with banana leaf wallpaper. If your in southern California come pay us a visit, I guarentee it will be bunches of fun and most appeeling so don’t slip up and pass us by.
