BLOOMSBURG man's collections displayed in town setting
Instead of presenting everything in a standard museum setting, Morris built "Billville," a replica town with a gas station, post office, smoke shop, camera store, mayor's office and banquet room that includes the bar from the Hotel Berwick. It also houses Morris' vast 1939 World's Fair collection, which includes a bar from one of the fair pavilions.

BLOOMSBURG - It's an understatement to say Bill Morris collects antique and classic motorcycles.
He collects everything.
From 300 European carousel horses, toys and hand-carved slot machines, to cameras, car emblems and movie memorabilia, history fills his 40,000-square-foot Bill's Old Bike Barn. He even has a 1948 Rolls Royce pickup that he restored; only seven of them were ever built.
