Following the filming of the final episode of M*A*S*H, 20th Century-Fox donated two of the sets used in the production of the series to the Smithsonian Institution. The O.R. and the Swamp were taken down and packed up at the studio’s Stage 9 sound stage in Hollywood, California and moved to the National Mall in Washington, D.C. where they were incorporated into a new exhibition called “Binding Up the Wounds” at the National Museum of American History. The exhibition opened to the public on July 30th, 1983 and was originally scheduled to close on September 30th, 1984 but due to overwhelming public interest was extended until January 2nd, 1985.

I’m currently researching the M*A*S*H exhibition for an article. I’d like to include comments from people who actually had the chance to visit the National Museum of American History and see the M*A*S*H exhibition. If you were one of the hundreds of thousands of people who walked through the Swamp and O.R. sets and want to send me your thoughts and recollections, please leave a comment here or e-mail me. I’ll only include first names and, if possible, when you visited.

Name That Episode

There was a M*A*S*H question during this Monday’s episode of Jeopardy!. During the Jeopardy round in the “Fictional Games” category, the $600 clue was “Hawkeye plays double cranko, which involves poker & chess, on this TV show” and the answer was M*A*S*H. One of the contestants rang in and answered correctly. I’ve updated my M*A*S*H on Jeopardy! page accordingly.
