The Museum of Pez Memorabilia is the fruit of the labor of love of the couples named Gary and Nancy Doss. They have been collecting pez dispensers of variety of sized and kinds for over 20 years now. And to properly showcase their collection, they built small storefront rooms housing their popular candy dispensers. These are made available to the public. Because of word of mouth and the popularity of the store, other pez dispenser collectors contact them and ask to buy some of their collectibles.

The collection has a total of more than 550 character pez. Also, the couple owns the title of having The World?s Largest Pez Dispenser. All of these are enclosed in glass-made displays. Upon visit, Gary would normally tell the stories behind every pez. His favorite is a 1968 psychedelic hand holding an eye.

According to the owners, the rarest of all the pez is a 1970s Make a Face pez which is similar to Mr. Potato Head only with the detachable body parts. Other rare finds include Mary Poppins and a Sparefroh which is some kind of a promotional item for the Austrian bank called Zentalspanksse. The cheapest price of this collection can be bought by $5,000.

They also have the Hitler pez dispenser, Elvis-inspired pez, the Pillsbury doughboy, Harry Potter, and the Phantom of the Opera.

The World?s Biggest pez dispenser is a 7 feet 10 inches tall replica of the snowman. It took about six months to finish. And in 2007, Gary and Nancy won the Guiness title for that category.
