James Dean Museum in Indiana Closes (AP)

Actor James Dean is seen during a scene from the Warner Bros. 1956 epic, 'Giant.'  Dean was killed in a car crash when filming was almost completed. David Loehr, the owner of the James Dean Gallery in Gas City Indiana, had first announced in December 2005 that he planned to close the museum, but an outpouring of contributions led him to give it another try. It ultimately shut down at the end of February 2006, though, and Loehr has packed up and placed all of his Dean memorabilia into storage. Dean was 24 and had hit it big with starring roles in 'East of Eden,' 'Rebel' and 'Giant,' which had just wrapped filming, when a station wagon collided with Dean's vehicle near rural Cholame, Calif., on Sept. 30, 1955. He died instantly. (AP Photo)AP - The museum chronicling the short life of James Dean has closed after struggling financially since its opening in 2004.
