The Mario Bros. Museum of Plumbing is a location featured in the Super Mario Bros. comic of the same name. During the comic, Luigi gives the reader a guided tour of the museum. The museum features several exhibits related to plumbing, which include the following:

  • The "world's first shower," which features a caveman under a rain cloud.
  • A replica of the "world's first drinking fountain," which features Native Americans lined for a drink from "Young Faithful," a reference to the geyser Old Faithful. However, one Native American walks away until ice water is created, as the water currently has a temperature of 212°F.
  • The "world's first leak," identified as the "rarest exhibit", which is hidden behind a door that, when opened, releases a torrent of water into the museum.
  • The "world's first sink," which resembles a modern sink made of dirt. Luigi mentions that the sink was unpopular when it was first invented, but became more popular once someone invented the first drain.
  • The "world's first shower-head", which consists of a man sticking their head and hands through a shower wall, with him spitting water from his mouth.
  • The "Venetian blind" shower curtain, which is a pink shower curtain designed after the titular blind.

Other unnamed exhibits include a painting of a toilet, as well as various pipes and plumbing equipment mounted onto walls. The museum also contains a gift shop, which features several souvenirs based on plumbing, including Dirk Drain-Head comics, plumbing postcards, and pencil sharpeners.
