LAS VEGAS — The Mob Museum, The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, has opened a permanent display from “Breaking Bad,” the award-winning crime drama broadcast from 2008 to 2013 on AMC.
Artifacts include the yellow hazmat suit worn by Bryan Cranston in the scenes where his character, Walter White, was cooking meth. Two gas masks and a rubber apron worn during the series are also on view.
“Breaking Bad” tells the story of White, a high school chemistry teacher who learns he has inoperable lung cancer. He partners with a former student, Jesse Pinkman, played by Aaron Paul, to manufacture and sell methamphetamine to build a family nest egg before he dies.
As White descends into the shadowy world of the illegal drug trade, he becomes a dark and notorious figure who goes by the alias “Heisenberg.” The show received numerous awards, including 16 Emmys and two Golden Globes.
