I would say the Hagley Museum and Library in Wilmington, Delaware, is geared to what you describe best.

Hi to the list.  Watched my 12 year old grandson's basketball game 
Saturday; team came from 
12 down to win by 3.  Close enough to the St. Louis MOT to pay a visit. 
 #2156 has not moved 
an inch since I was last there.  No word; no rumors; didn't want you to 
think I had forgotten. 
Expected the move last fall (as we all did).  I resume my tour guide 
services in March.  My 
camera is charged and ready.
