Springsteen exhibit slated for Pa. national museum

[October 27, 2011]  PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A Bruce Springsteen exhibit including guitars, handwritten lyrics, and a 1960 Corvette will open at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia this winter.

"From Asbury Park to the Promised Land: The Life and Music of Bruce Springsteen" will open at the national museum sometime after closing in February at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. The exact dates have not yet been posted.

Constitution Center officials say the Philadelphia showing is the only scheduled stop for the exhibit.

The collection has been at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame since April 2009. Springsteen contributed many of his own items to the exhibit, including the Chevrolet Corvette he bought after the success of "Born to Run."
