I would sell it and donate the money to the Jersey City Museum.

Sell it to whom? The desk itself should be a museum object. If nothing else, it could be exhibited within city hall, accompanied by an informative label. (And that still from Boardwalk Empire.)

Sell it to the highest bidder. If said bidder wishes to donate it in such a way so it can be on public display, so be it.

I don't think we should have nostalgia for a corrupt past.

But those who forget the past are destined to repeat it.

There's a difference between remembering the past and fetishisizing it. I don't like the idea that it is still being used today, like it's some sort of quaint joke.
