A new museum dedicated to the life of Johnny Cash is set to open in Nashville.

The museum will be operated by Bill Miller, a collector of Johnny Cash memorabilia, and will contain items donated by Cash’s family as well as items from – and the original sign of – The House of Cash, the Johnny Cash museum in Hendersonville, Tennessee which closed in 1999 and features in the iconic video for Cash’s single ‘Hurt’.
