The L.A. edition of the MoF debuts at the A+D Architecture and Design Museum on December 2. Featured fails range from Donald Trump’s board game and the orbitoclast lobotomy to Colgate lasagna, Harley-Davidson Perfume, the Apple Newton, the Betamax, and Google Glass. Each was unveiled with great hope for success, and each one sank like a lead balloon. Learn about these, along with dozens of other product and service fiascos, at this provocative new museum.
