Recently Digitised
The Museum has two collections of photographs comprising firstly digitised versions of archived originals of all subjects, and those pertaining to objects in the collection accessioned and catalogued. This is a selection from our recently digitised acquisitions. We have around 1200 to date, thanks to Ted Richards, our highly skilled and creative collections photographer.
