The shop is just like every other museum shop. You'll find the
obligatory NASA stuff, Boeing (why am I not surprised), the coffee
table books, etc. No flea market stuff at all.


Hmmm... Boeing stuff?

Suppose there's a source of real, authentic Boeing memorabilia for a
possible Boeing Suite?

The Boeing country store used to be over in Kent. Is it still there?

There _used_ to be a Boeing surplus store in Seattle that supposedly had
a lot of interesting stuff -- I think I read on this NG once long ago
about someone obtaining a whole cockpit (or cockpit dummy mockup?) for
scrap value and making a kids' playhouse out of it.

Whether it still exists or not, don't know.

We've got cool Boeing models (including the 787) at the museum in
addition to a panel of the fuselage which is rather cool. I'm sure
someone at Boeing would be able to help you out. You have to find your
local community relations person.
