Warner Bros. Museum, also known as the Warner Bros. Studio Tour Archive, is the only studio museum in the film industry of Burbank, California and is dedicated to Warner Bros. Opened in 1996, the 7,000 sq. foot museum brings together costumes, props, animation cells and letters collected from the history of Warner Bros. film-making and television programs.[1][2]
Steven J. Ross Theater and the museum were built on the former location of a film vault near Brownstone Street that was dismantled in 1995.[3] Numerous items were sourced from Jack M. Warner's estate.[4] The archivist Leith Adams compiled the items for the public to view.[5] The museum can be visited during a "VIP tour" that lasts 75 minutes.[6]
