I saw the King Tut exhibition when it was
in Seattle in 1978 ... :-)
Here's an article about that tour back then ...

Wifey (before we were married) saw it in Los Angeles...for years and years she wore a gold “Tut” ring she purchased at the time.

The sarcophagus is not on this tour. Big disappointment.

I saw it then in Seattle as well. I was only about 16 but it was very memorable.

I saw the tour a couple of years ago when it hit the Field Museum in Chicago; I think it’s currently in an extended stay at its last stop. It’s impressive! But the one you say in 1978 was even moreso I believe, and this thing at Times Square — Zowie is complaining, but there’s a Tut mummy replica which is basically a mannikin wrapped in bandages, it’s perfectly appropriate to put it in a department store window display. :’)
