The King Tut exhibit in Philadelphia in mid Sept. Has anyone been to it? I would like to know if it is worth the trip. I was going to see the exhibit in Florida when it was there. A friend told my sister that this tour was not that good. I would like some feedback from someone who has seen it in PA, CA, or FL.
Co-workers of mine who went to see it were disappointed, mostly (I gathered) because they hadn't realized beforehand that some of the most spectacular artifacts stayed home this time, such as the famous gold mask.
Reading between the lines, though, it sounded pretty interesting to me as long as you go with an open mind and don't assume it's necessarily designed for maximum "splash" like previous Tut exhibits. (Old armchair Egyptophile speaking here.)
