I spotted this as I was walking around Hollywood Boulevard (its just round the corner) only $15 admission price and lots to see especially if you like old style stuff. Monroe, Crawford and Bette Davis clothing and shoes and make-up plus interesting documents and photos of Jean Harlow.
There are several floors and it goes right to the back. Also...

Always in love with cinema, we decided to check out this attraction b'cuz of the building ties to Max Factor. We couldn't have been happier. Loved the building, slight kitsch factor, and about 10,000 props, costumes, etc. Lots of museums down in this stretch, but this place is a must.
The first floor has the most interesting items. Learn about Max Factor and all he did for women's cosmetics. Lots of great photos and history. Take a ride in the huge elevator that is big enough to haul cars up and down the floor.
We went to the Hollywood Museum (the one on Highland, there are several) because it had Indiana Jones and Jaws paraphernelia and we had a 10 year old with us.
We loved it....it is located in the historic Max Factor Building which is a lovely piece of architecture. The first floor is very old Hollywood - lots of pictures and...

Well the lonely planet lists this museum as a "must see" - but if you are under 35 I'd say forget it. Why do I say this? Well because there really isn't any movie/tv items that directly relate to our age group. The advertisements for this place make you think there is lots of Zac Effron, Leo DiCaprio, and Miley...

3 floors of film and TV items old and new. This place is amazing they have masses of memoribilia and it takes a good couple of hours to go through it all. You can take pictures throughout which was great. I loved the winner is exhibit and the old max factor rooms.
We got a groupon so our admission was 2 people for 15 dollars. I wouldn't pay much more. It was cool to see the old Max Factor stuff as well as the limited memoribilia. If you can get cheap tickets, I say go for it! Downstairs was very creepy, especially since the museum was empty on a Saturday afternoon.
Always wanted to go, but not that impressed. The best item was the Bicycle from Pee Wee. Other than that you will be done in an hour . It's around the corner from Graumans Theatre on Hollywood Blvd
There are four floors of movie memorabilia. It was interesting. I was disappointed because the red slippers from The Wizard of Oz were missing the day I was there. They were of great interest to me. Max Factor and the history of his make up was interesting.
