Many heartfelt thanks to George Takei and the Japanese American National Museum for their efforts in keeping this collection where it belongs. I do hope this opens a dialog in the art community and marketplace. This collection reflects a highly personal and extremely difficult time period which should not be profited from; instead it needs to be shared as a tool for reflection and education. JANM is most certainly the best steward to share this piece of the Japanese American experience.
