An article from the Peoria Journal Star, “In a sea of land, one man builds fleet,” National Museum of Ship Models and Sea History finds home in central Illinois. The article features Charles Lozar and his ship model collection that he houses in Sadorus, Illinois. The National Museum of Ship Models and Sea History (1,000 miles from the nearest ocean) opened in 2002. There is a black and white photo of Charles surrounded by his collection of ship models. Below the photo is a handwritten phone number, 217-357-1672.
