Obscure/Special Interest Chicago Museums

Aside from the world-famous and popular Chicago museums, I've come across a few of these special interest/obscure museums that might be of interest to others. General admission is either free or cheap (Less than $20/person).

I'm sure there are MANY more Chicago museums that have been around for a long time. We have a LOT of history! I'm sure there is also a fire museum, a maritime museum, a police museum, an architecture museum, and many others dedicated to the many historical facets of this FABULOUS city! I just haven't gotten to them yet. (So much to see and do; so little time!)
